About this audiobook
Kubernetes has become the dominant container orchestrator, but many organizations that have recently adopted this system are still struggling to run actual production workloads. In this practical book, four software engineers from VMware bring their shared experiences running Kubernetes in production and provide insight on key challenges and best practices.
The brilliance of Kubernetes is how configurable and extensible the system is, from pluggable runtimes to storage integrations. For platform engineers, software developers, infosec, network engineers, storage engineers, and others, this book examines how the path to success with Kubernetes involves a variety of technology, pattern, and abstraction considerations. With this book, you will:
● Understand what the path to production looks like when using Kubernetes
● Examine where gaps exist in your current Kubernetes strategy
● Learn Kubernetes's essential building blocks—and their trade-offs
● Understand what's involved in making Kubernetes a viable location for applications
● Learn better ways to navigate the cloud native landscape

About the author
Josh Rosso has been working with organizations to adopt Kubernetes since 2016. He's worked as an engineer and architect at CoreOS (RedHat), Heptio, and now VMware. He's been involved in architecture and engineering to help build compute platforms in financial institutions, establish edge compute to support 5g, and more.
Alex Brand started working with Kubernetes in 2016, when he helped build one of the first open source Kubernetes installers at Apprenda. Since then, Alex has worked at Heptio and VMware, designing and building Kubernetes-based platforms for organizations across multiple industry verticals, including finance and healthcare.
Rich Lander was an early adopter of Docker and began running production workloads using containers in 2015. He was running production applications on Kubernetes by version 1.3. Rich took that experience and subsequently worked at CoreOS (RedHat), Heptio, and VMware as a field engineer.
John Harris brings experience in cloud-native architecture, engineering, and DevOps practices to help companies of all sizes build robust Kubernetes platforms and applications. Prior to working at VMware (via Heptio), he was an architect at Docker, advising some of their most strategic customers.
Mike Chamberlain is an actor and voice-over performer, as well as an AudioFile Earphones Award-winning audiobook narrator. Along with animation and video game characters, Mike performs narration and voices promos for television. He lives with his wife and daughter in Southern California.
