What's Actually in This Book

Kubernetes isn't just about YAML files and pods.

It's an entire world of people, companies, and communities. This book maps it all out through real conversations with the people who built and shaped it.

Five chapters, five different angles:

  • The Landscape: Who actually runs Kubernetes? CNCF, vendors, startups—and how the money flows
  • The Paths: Are you a coder? A teacher? A builder? Stories of how different people found their place
  • The Currency: What actually matters—GitHub commits, conference talks, certifications, or something else?
  • The Market: Real data on jobs, salaries, and what companies actually want (spoiler: it's not just CKA certs)
  • The Journey: How to build your own path without burning out or getting lost

Learn from people who've actually done it—not theory, but real experiences from real people.

Why This Book Matters

"Kubernetes has transformed from a container orchestrator into a global movement. Understanding the people, the community, and the opportunities is just as important as understanding the technology. This book brings together voices from across the ecosystem to show you how it all works—and where you might fit in."
