From the Publisher
From Author
I’m passionate about this book and determined to make it the best in the world for anyone learning Kubernetes.
Kubernetes is developing fast. That’s why I’m committed to updating this book every year. And when I say “updating”, I mean real updates — every word and every concept will be reviewed, and every example will be tested and updated against the latest versions of Kubernetes.
I also ensure the book covers topics from multiple angles so it’s valuable for software developers, IT operations, cloud administrators, DevOps, Site Reliability Engineers (SRE) and more.
Finally, I work hard to demystify all the jargon, write the clearest explanations, and include the easiest and most useful hands-on lab exercises so that you’ll truly master Kubernetes.
Editorial Reviews
Nigel Poulton’s ‘The Kubernetes Book’ starts by explaining all the basic concepts in a more straightforward way. It covers everything in detail to become a proficient Kubernetes user. This book gets an update every year, which is how it remains relevant. For this reason, it is one of the best books you can start with.

The approach Nigel takes is different in a sense of making sure, that you really deeply understand K8s. I found many other books were merely reiterating what’s available in the official K8s docs. If you’re like me, while the docs are pretty comprehensive, they caused many follow up questions for me. Nigel has a great intuition for what these questions are and addressing them in an extremely detailed fashion. I had so many aha-moments while reading The Kubernetes Book. Highly recommended!
Ralf Rottmann
It explains complex concepts like services, storage, API security and RBAC (and many others) in a very intuitive and practical manner thanks to a lot of ready to use examples which let you test what you just learnt. So, to summarize, I highly recommend this book to anyone interested into DevOps world, or just interested to learn more about this powerful framework.
Customers find the book fantastic at explaining Kubernetes concepts and providing easy-to-understand examples, making it a helpful resource for beginners. Moreover, the book is up-to-date and covers the basics of Kubernetes comprehensively, with one customer noting it includes hands-on exercises for different components. However, the content depth receives mixed feedback, with several customers finding it not in-depth enough. Additionally, the book contains typographical errors and weak analogies that detract from the reading experience.
