IoT Edge Computing with MicroK8s

Early Access

This is the code repository for IoT Edge Computing with MicroK8s, published by Packt.

A hands-on approach to building, deploying, and distributing production-ready Kubernetes on IoT and Edge platforms

What is this book about?

Are you facing challenges with developing, deploying, monitoring, clustering, storing, securing, and managing Kubernetes in production environments as you're not familiar with infrastructure technologies? MicroK8s - a zero-ops, lightweight, and CNCF-compliant Kubernetes with a small footprint is the apt solution for you.

This book covers the following exciting features:

  • Get a holistic view of MicroK8s features using a sample application
  • Understand IoT and edge computing and their architecture constraints
  • Create, scale, and update HA Raspberry Pi multi-node clusters
  • Implement AI/ML use cases with the Kubeflow platform
  • Work with various networking plugins, and monitoring and logging tools
  • Perform service mesh integrations using Istio and Linkerd
  • Run serverless applications using Knative and OpenFaaS frameworks
  • Secure your containers using Kata and strict confinement options

Instructions and Navigations

All of the code is organized into folders. For example, Chapter 01.

A block of code is set as follows:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: metallb-load-balancer
spec:
  selector:
    app: whoami
  ports:
    - protocol: TCP
      port: 80
      targetPort: 80
type: LoadBalancer

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

 kubectl apply -f loadbalancer.yaml 

Following is what you need for this book: This book is for DevOps and cloud engineers, SREs, and application developers who want to implement efficient techniques for deploying their software solutions. It will also be useful for technical architects and technology leaders who are looking to adopt cloud-native technologies. A basic understanding of container-based application design and development, virtual machines, networking, databases, and programming will be helpful for using this book.

With the following software and hardware list you can run all code files present in the book (Chapter 1-16).
