Book Description

If you've deployed applications on a Kubernetes cluster, you’ll be familiar with some of the challenges and aspirations that forged the Operator pattern. If you've maintained foundation services like databases and filesystems in their own ghetto outside your orchestrated clusters, and you yearn to bring them into the neighborhood, this guide to Kubernetes Operators is for you.

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 Red Hat Operator Framework. We relate good practices for designing, building, and distributing Operators, and we explain the thinking that animates Operators with Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles.
