Kubernetes is an open source container orchestration platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It provides a platform for automating application container deployment, scaling, and operations across clusters of hosts. With Kubernetes, you can easily deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications, ensuring they run efficiently and reliably. Everybody is talking about Kubernetes and cloud-native applications. Articles and documentation for Kubernetes are abundant, and so is the customization we can do. Kubernetes is a complex technology, and finding the information we need to perform our task might be daunting. Open source software is distributed online rather than in shiny box sets. This chapter guides us through the first steps in the orchestration technology because the customization options are literally infinite.
