Kubernetes Simplified: A Comprehensive Guide from Basics


to Advanced Concepts

Kubernetes is a comprehensive platform for managing containerized applications at scale. Below is


an overview of Kubernetes topics from start to end, with concise explanations for each. Let me know
if you want deeper details on any of these.

1. Introduction to Kubernetes

 Definition: Kubernetes is an open-source platform for automating deployment, scaling, and


operations of application containers.

 Why Kubernetes?

o Efficient scaling.

o High availability.

o Automated deployments and rollbacks.

2. Kubernetes Architecture

 Master Node: Controls the cluster.

o Components:

 API Server: Front-end for the control plane.

 Scheduler: Allocates workloads to worker nodes.

 Controller Manager: Handles node lifecycle, replication, and endpoints.

 ETCD: Key-value store for cluster data.

 Worker Nodes:

o Runs application workloads.

o Components:

 Kubelet: Communicates with the master and manages pods on the node.

 Kube Proxy: Manages network rules for pods.

 Container Runtime: Runs containers (e.g., Docker, CRI-O).

3. Kubernetes Key Concepts

 Cluster: A set of nodes (master and workers).

 Node: A physical or virtual machine in the cluster.

 Pod: Smallest deployable unit in Kubernetes, which runs containers.

 Namespace: Logical isolation for resources.

 Service: Exposes a set of pods as a network service.

 Volume: Storage for pods.

4. Installing Kubernetes

 Tools for Installation:

o Minikube: For local Kubernetes cluster setup.

o Kubeadm: Simplifies cluster setup.

o Cloud Solutions: EKS (AWS), AKS (Azure), GKE (Google Cloud).

5. Kubernetes Objects

 Deployments: Declarative updates for pods and replicas.

 ReplicaSets: Ensures a specified number of pod replicas are running.


Mayank Singh

 StatefulSets: Manages stateful applications.

 DaemonSets: Ensures a copy of a pod runs on all nodes.

 Jobs/CronJobs: Executes tasks once or on a schedule.

6. Networking in Kubernetes

 Cluster Networking: Pods can communicate across nodes.

 Services Types:

o ClusterIP: Internal access within the cluster.

o NodePort: Exposes service on each node's IP.

o LoadBalancer: Exposes service using a cloud provider's load balancer.

 Ingress: Manages external HTTP/S access.

7. Storage in Kubernetes

 Persistent Volumes (PV): Cluster-wide storage resource.

 Persistent Volume Claims (PVC): Requests for storage.

 Storage Classes: Abstracts the underlying storage type.

8. Managing Kubernetes

 kubectl: CLI tool for managing Kubernetes.

o Example Commands:

 kubectl get pods - Lists all pods.

 kubectl describe pod <pod-name> - Detailed information about a pod.

 kubectl apply -f <file.yaml> - Applies configurations.

 Dashboard: GUI for managing Kubernetes.

9. Scaling and Auto-scaling

 Horizontal Pod Autoscaler: Adjusts the number of pods based on metrics.

 Vertical Pod Autoscaler: Adjusts resources (CPU, memory) for pods.

 Cluster Autoscaler: Scales nodes in/out based on pod requirements.

10. Logging and Monitoring

 Tools:

o Prometheus: Metrics collection.

o Grafana: Data visualization.

o ELK Stack: Centralized logging.

 kubectl Logs: Command to view logs of a pod.

11. Kubernetes Security

 RBAC (Role-Based Access Control): Manages access control.

 Secrets: Stores sensitive information securely.

 Pod Security Policies: Defines security constraints for pods.

12. CI/CD in Kubernetes

 Integration with tools like Jenkins, ArgoCD, and GitLab CI.

 Rolling updates, canary deployments, and blue-green deployments.

13. Advanced Concepts

 Operators: Custom resources to manage applications.

 Custom Resource Definitions (CRD): Extend Kubernetes API.

 Helm: Package manager for Kubernetes.

14. Troubleshooting in Kubernetes

 Common commands:

o kubectl describe - Detailed resource info.

o kubectl logs - Pod logs.

o kubectl exec - Execute commands in a pod.


Mayank Singh

15. Kubernetes Ecosystem

 Service Mesh: Istio, Linkerd for managing service-to-service communication.

 Kubernetes in Cloud:

o EKS, AKS, GKE.

 Container Runtimes: Docker, CRI-O, containerd.

16. Best Practices

 Use namespaces for isolation.

 Define resource requests and limits.

 Regularly monitor and audit clusters.
