Hands-On Multi-Cloud Kubernetes: Multi-cluster kubernetes administration with FluxCD, Virtual Kubelet, Submariner and KubeFed

Readers will learn to work with various powerful tools, including Helm, FluxCD, Virtual Kubelet, Submariner, and KubeFed. With GitOps principles and workflows, they will practice continuous delivery and learn to manage secrets and config maps. They will build and deploy serverless clusters using Virtual Kubelet and learn to scale them across multiple cloud environments. They will even be introduced to cross-cluster networking with Submariner, where they will learn to perform service discovery, load balancing, and monitor networking metrics.

Managing multi-cluster Kubernetes can be a daunting task, but with KubeFed, readers will gain the skills necessary to set up and deploy multicluster federations, making it easier than ever to administer their own infrastructure. And with multi-cloud CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, they will perform end-to-end multi-cloud operations, ensuring their code is delivered quickly and efficiently.

Finally, the book covers security in Kubernetes, giving readers the tools and knowledge to configure RBAC, Kubernetes network policies, and secure data over Kubernetes clusters. They will even learn to use Open Policy Agent to manage compliance, ensuring that their infrastructure is powerful and secure.
