Introduction

Networking in Kubernetes can be challenging to understand, but it's such an important part of the whole solution that I decided to prepare an ebook about this subject.

In this ebook, we will start with the foundational concepts and technical details of Kubernetes networking. This will include an overview of the Kubernetes networking model, key components, and how they interact with each other. Understanding these basics is crucial for anyone looking to effectively manage and troubleshoot Kubernetes networks.

The subsequent chapters will provide practical and useful examples of how to work with and use networking in Kubernetes. This includes configuring network policies, service discovery, and load balancing. We will also explore advanced topics such as network security, monitoring, and troubleshooting.

Finally, in the last chapter, we will present end-to-end examples that demonstrate reusing CNI (Container Network Interface) plugins and deploying applications in a Kubernetes cluster. These examples will help you apply the concepts and techniques discussed throughout the ebook in real-world scenarios.

By the end of this ebook, you should have a solid understanding of Kubernetes networking and be well-equipped to handle networking challenges in your Kubernetes environment.
