= Kubernetes for the busy developer :toc:

The Kubernetes hype train has reached full velocity and many organisations are now adopting the technology. The Kubernetes ecosystem can be very operator focused and it can be a challenge for developers to distill the information that is relevant for their job. There are a large number of available tools aimed at solving a broad set of problems but it can be daunting choosing which to invest in. This tutorial aims to provide developers with a thorough grounding on Kubernetes concepts, suggest best practices and get hands-on with some of the essential tooling.

Slides: https://speakerdeck.com/albertoimpl/kubernetes-distilled

== Why this tutorial

After working with a PaaS where the developer has just one single command to deploy the applications: cf push, heroku deploy or gcloud app deploy. They abstract from a huge amount of complexity. The experience coming to kubernetes is far from that. There are many tools for each phase of the lifecycle increasing the learning curve.

== What this tutorial is not about

• How to operate or deploy a k8s cluster.
• K8s architecture will be treated as a black box and only the necessary will be described.
