“Mastering AWS Elastic Kubernetes Services" is your comprehensive guide to understanding and implementing AWS EKS. This book helps you master Kubernetes, the industry-standard container orchestration platform, on the robust and scalable Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud. This book is a complete guide to Kubernetes and AWS EKS, starting with the basics of Kubernetes architecture and container orchestration.
This book systematically builds your understanding through 23 carefully structured chapters. We begin with fundamental Kubernetes concepts, ensuring a solid foundation before diving into EKS-specific architectures and components. The journey progresses from basic cluster setup to advanced operational aspects, including security, monitoring, and integration with AWS services. Each chapter is designed to provide practical, hands-on knowledge that you can immediately apply in your professional role.
The middle sections of the book focus on real-world scenarios, covering crucial topics like deploying stateful applications, implementing networking solutions, and establishing robust security measures. We explore essential operational aspects such as monitoring, logging, and troubleshooting, which are vital for maintaining production-grade EKS clusters.
As we advance, the book delves into modern DevOps practices, including CI/CD pipelines, GitOps workflows, and disaster recovery strategies. The final chapters concentrate on optimization techniques and best practices, ensuring your EKS implementations are not just functional but excel in performance, security, and cost-effectiveness.
Pulumi is an open-source IaC platform that makes it easy to create, deploy, and manage cloud infrastructure and applications. Pulumi allows defining infrastructure in regular programming languages like Python, TypeScript, Go, and .NET instead of using a custom domain specific language like with tools such as Terraform or CloudFormation. This brings all the benefits of programming languages and modern software development to infrastructure automation. Pulumi programs deploy to and integrate deeply with cloud services like AWS, Azure, and GCP but run anywhere with very little modification. Some key benefits of using Pulumi over Terraform include the ability to leverage existing languages and tools, better support for configuration and secret management, reusable and shareable components, testing frameworks, and superior programming models.
