The kubectl command-line interface is the primary tool platform engineers and developers use to interact with Kubernetes clusters. In this episode, we’ll configure kubectl and deploy our first atomic Kubernetes primitive: the Pod.
The evolution of modern infrastructure has transitioned from physical bare-metal servers to Virtual Machines (VMs), lightweight OCI Containers, and ultimately automated Container Orchestration platforms like Kubernetes.
Containers do not exist as physical entities inside the Linux kernel. A “container” is simply a standard Linux process isolated via Namespaces, throttled by cgroups, and mounted on an Overlay2 union filesystem.
The Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA) exam is a multiple-choice certification designed to test your foundational knowledge of the cloud-native ecosystem. In this first episode, we explore the CNCF landscape, cloud-native architecture patterns, and containerization principles.
