Knative: Serverless Applications on Kubernetes: Build Event-Driven Microservices with Auto-Scaling, Traffic Management, and Serverless Deployments on

By ELLION ZHANG

Ship serverless applications on Kubernetes with predictable rollouts, clear autoscaling, and reliable event delivery.

Teams often stitch together Deployments, Ingress, HPAs, and scripts, then fight latency spikes and brittle rollouts. This book gives you one coherent model using Knative so you deploy faster, split traffic safely, and scale on real work signals.

You will use Serving for HTTP and gRPC workloads, Eventing for pipelines that span services and backends, and production settings that match how modern platforms run.
