This book is a comprehensive guide to designing production-ready Kubernetes cluster topologies. It compares AWS EKS, Google GKE, Azure AKS, and self-hosted Kubernetes across key dimensions such as control plane architecture, node placement, SLA-backed high availability, upgrade strategies, and multi-region resilience. It also explores the trade-offs between managed and user-controlled environments, and provides an in-depth evaluation of provisioning tools including kubeadm, kOps, Kubespray, and Cluster API. The book equips platform engineers with the knowledge to make topology decisions that align with their operational goals, risk tolerance, and scalability needs.
