Gives some good blueprints about deploying real world applications. I would have preferred if the book covered more infrastructure topics as well. Overall a good introduction to Kubernetes. Found the monitoring and logging chapter helpful.

For K8s beginners with an experience of 6 months using public cloud provider like GCP. This books provides good theory and examples on best practices. Could be revised in the next editions to add continuity to the examples for someone reading the book from first page to last page.

Great overview of how to construct and maintain a robust and comfortable-to-use K8s cluster. Can be read like a cookbook.

Basically workshops that Piotr, Łukasz and I are delivering (Poznaj Kubernetes or offline) in written words. Book looks at practical usage and configuration of Kubernetes and when to use what.

Exactly what I'd expect from a best-practice book to be - series of advice on what works and doesn't work when you're both developing and operating/maintaining a production environment at the same time. It's also written like a cookbook, the chapters kept independent of each other and each containing recipes for how to deal with a particular concept/concern.
