All Indian Reprints of O'Reilly are printed in GrayscaleIs Kubernetes ready for stateful workloads? This open-source system has become the primary platform for deploying and managing cloud native applications. But because it was originally designed for stateless workloads, working with data on Kubernetes has been challenging. If you want to avoid the inefficiencies and duplicative costs of having separate infrastructure for applications and data, this practical guide can help.Using Kubernetes as your platform, you'll learn open-source technologies that are designed and built for the cloud. Authors Jeff Carpenter and Patrick McFadin provide case studies to help you explore new use cases and avoid the pitfalls others have faced. You'll get an insider's view of what's coming from innovators who are creating next-generation architectures and infrastructure.With this book, you will:
Learn how to use basic Kubernetes resources to compose data infrastructure
Automate the deployment and operations of data infrastructure on Kubernetes using tools like Helm and operators
Evaluate and select data infrastructure technologies for use in your applications
Integrate data infrastructure technologies into your overall stack
Explore emerging technologies that will enhance your Kubernetes-based applications in the future
About the AuthorJeff Carpenter has worked as a software engineer and architect in multiple industries and as a developer advocate helping engineers succeed with Apache Cassandra. He's involved in multiple open source projects in the Cassandra and Kubernetes ecosystems including Stargate and K8ssandra. Jeff is coauthor of the O'Reilly books Cassandra: The Definitive Guide and Managing Cloud Native Data on Kubernetes.Patrick McFadin  has been a distributed systems hacker since he first plugged a modem into his Atari computer. Looking for adventure, he joined the US Navy, working on the Naval Tactical Data System (NTDS), which cemented his love of distributed systems. He then spent the 1990s working on infrastructure as the internet started to take off and barely survived the ensuing dot-com crash. Along the way, Patrick picked up a Computer Engineering degree from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and has been focusing on high-scale internet infrastructure ever since. His latest obsession is distributed data systems, and he has been a steady contributor to the Apache Cassandra project since 2011.
