The ever-growing kubernetes manual

After several months not posting and trying to think a way to articulate this idea I had in mind, I think I got how to present this to the community.

This post will serve as an index for a series of other articles about kubernetes from scratch, I am planing on writing a more elavorated version of it (possibly in a ebook format) but I also wanted to give a free version to the community with the basics of Kubernetes in an easy to follow format clarifying the basic concepts you will need to go from 0 to a degree where you will feel confortable enough to deploy apps to Kubernetes and do some basic troubleshooting by using a easy to follow narrative to not only read technical information but also to nuderstand the reasoning behind it.

I will try to add more articles into the list so if you feel there are items not being presented please let me know and I will add them into the index.

So, let's jump into it:

1 - What is Kubernetes, how does it works and why do we need it
2 - Managed cluster vs unmanaged clusters
3 - Basic elements of an application running in Kubernetes
4 - Deployments, replicasets and pods
5 - Services, networking and ingress
6 - Storage classes, volumes and how to store your app data
7 - Secrets, config maps and how they are used

I will be adding those articles soon and update this index with the links to the corresponding articles, follow me to get notified every time I upload one of them and don't miss a single post :)

As always, comments and feedback is always welcome and appreciated.

See you later!

The Kubernetes manual is always getting bigger, and it can be hard to keep up. It’s full of important details, but it might feel overwhelming for new users. Hopefully, it gets easier to understand over time!
