The Kubernetes Bible: The definitive guide to deploying and managing Kubernetes across major cloud platforms

"This is, hands down, the only Kubernetes book you will need if you want to become proficient in using this technology. The authors did a great job going through all there is about Kubernetes, from fundamentals through to underlying architecture and core concepts. You will learn what Kubernetes is, how it works, what are its components, how to work with pods, clusters, secrets and services, namespaces, and storage. By the end of the book, you'll have learnt how to deploy Kubernetes clusters on Google's Kubernetes Engine, Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service, and Azure Kubernetes Service. This being a 'bible', you will also get to grips with advanced techniques for scheduling, authentication and authorization, autoscaling, and traffic routing. It is, as I said at the beginning, the ONE book you will need to learn all about Kubernetes."
