Book Description

This book is designed to introduce you to using containers and Kubernetes for full-stack development. You'll learn how to develop a full-stack application using Node.js and MongoDB and how to manage them - first with Docker , then with Docker Compose, and finally with Kubernetes.

There are numerous tools, networking configurations, and processes that can help make Kubernetes more approachable. This book will examine each topic in turn so that anyone who follows along will be able to build, manage, and monitor a Kubernetes cluster on their own.

The topics that it covers include how to:

1. Build a Node.js application using Docker for development
2. Integrate a NoSQL database into your Node.js application using MongoDB
3. Manage your development environment with Docker Compose
4. Migrate your Docker Compose workflow to Kubernetes
5. Scale your Node.js and MongoDB application using Helm and Kubernetes
6. Secure your containerized Node.js application using Nginx, Let’s Encrypt, and Docker Compose

• From Containers to Kubernetes with Node.js (Katherine Juell)

• How To Code in Node.js (David Landup, et al)

  Learn the basics of how to code in Node.js, gaining skills that apply equally to back-end and full stack development in the process, leverage Node's asynchronous code execution capabilities, complete with event emitters and listeners that will respond to user actions.

• Fullstack Node.js: A Complete Guide to Building Production Apps

  This book contains everything you need to learn to create fast, production Node.js code. Including (but not limited to): How to create high-performance API servers in Node, How to leverage Node's async capabilities for maximum performance, etc.

• Kubernetes: Up and Running: Dive into the Future of Infrastructure

  This practical book shows developers and ops personnel how Kubernetes and container technology can help you achieve new levels of velocity, agility, reliability, and efficiency. It explains how this system fits into the lifecycle of a distributed application.

• The Kubernetes Workshop (Zachary Arnold, et al.)

  Learn how to build and run highly scalable workloads on Kubernetes. From building your own cluster to running cloud-native applications with Kubernetes, this workshop covers it all using engaging examples and activities.

• Kubernetes Patterns: Designing Cloud-Native Applications

  This book provides common reusable elements, patterns, principles, and practices for designing and implementing cloud-native applications on Kubernetes. It is based on use cases and lessons learned from real-world projects.

• Kubernetes Security and Observability: Securing Containers

  Kubernetes is not secure by default. This book will take you through the full breadth of new cloud-native approaches for establishing security and observability for applications running on Kubernetes.

• Hacking Kubernetes: Threat-Driven Analysis and Defense

  It begins with a vanilla Kubernetes installation with built-in defaults, then examines an abstract threat model of a distributed system running arbitrary workloads, and then progress to a detailed assessment of each component of a secure Kubernetes system.

• Security as Code: DevSecOps Patterns with AWS (BK Das, et al.)

  It demonstrates how to use this methodology to secure any application and infrastructure you want to deploy. You'll learn how to create a secure containerized application with Kubernetes using CI/CD tooling from AWS and open source providers.

• Kubernetes for Full-Stack Developers (Jamon Camisso, et al)

  This book helps newcomers and experienced users alike learn about Kubernetes, introduces core Kubernetes concepts and to build on them to a level where running an application on a production cluster is a familiar, repeatable, and automated process.

• Cloud Native DevOps with Kubernetes (Justin Domingus, et al.)

  This book guides you through the growing Kubernetes ecosystem and provides practical solutions to everyday problems with software tools currently in use. It shows you what Kubernetes can do - and what you can do with it.

• Kubernetes Operators: Automating the Container Orchestration

  This book explains what an Operator is and how Operators extend the Kubernetes API. It shows how to deploy and use existing Operators, and how to create and distribute Operators for your applications using the Operator Framework.
