The Best Kubernetes Tutorials

We have been looking for the best Kubernetes tutorials out there and thought of sharing some of what we found interesting to get started with Kubernetes,

Check full article here: https://hubs.ly/H0qY2q-0

The Official Kubernetes.io Tutorials
It is more of a collection of the existing content on Kubernetes.io. It focuses more on introducing the general concepts and constructs of Kubernetes. But it doesn’t provide necessary lessons that build upon each other. Covered Topics.

• The Basics


https://kubernetes.io/docs/tutorials/#basics
• Configuring Kubernetes

https://kubernetes.io/docs/tutorials/#configuration
• Stateless Applications

https://kubernetes.io/docs/tutorials/#stateless-applications

DigitalOcean Tutorials
It is a collection of articles that are nicely written and well organized. They are sometimes focused on Running Kubernetes on top of DigitalOcean however. But you are still going to learn a lot of Kubernetes basics that are applicable to any other infrastructure. Some of the notable topics are:

• An Introduction to Kubernetes


https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/an-introduction-to-kubernetes
• An introduction to Kubernetes DNS Services

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/an-introduction-to-the-kubernetes-dns-service
• An introduction to Helm, the package manager for kuberenetes
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/an-introduction-to-helm-the-package-manager-for-kubernetes


Google Kubernetes Engine Tutorials
Google tutorials are mostly focused on specific use cases more than teaching you the basic Kubernetes concepts. Examples of such tutorials are: create a guestbook with Redis and PHP on GKE, or Using Persistent Disks with WordPress and MySQL. Google depends mainly on Kubernetes.io as the main source of knowledge about Kubernetes since Google engineers are most contributors to these tutorials. Main covered topics:

• Deploying Applications


https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/tutorials/hello-app
• Configuring cluster networking

https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/tutorials/http-balancer
• Continuous Integration and delivery
