Hey everyone. If you are tired of reading boring technical docs and want to understand Kubernetes without losing your mind you are exactly where you need to be :) Grab a coffee and get comfortable. A while ago I gave a detailed presentation on Kubernetes 101 for the UN SDG AI Lab and I realized it would make a highly beneficial Medium article for anyone trying to learn this technology. Today we are going deep into the architecture and concepts. We will keep it conversational but stay focused on the technical details. Let us look at our roadmap for today. We are going to talk about the why first. You need to thoroughly understand the fundamental need and the pain points before we touch any new technology. Then we move to the what by actually defining Kubernetes. After that we will explore the how by breaking down the complex architecture into simple mental models. We will also do a live demonstration to prove it all works and map out your path forward.…
