Extending Kubernetes

In this chapter, we will dig deep into the guts of Kubernetes. We will start with the Kubernetes API and learn how to work with Kubernetes programmatically via direct access to the API, the Python client, and automating Kubectl. Then, we'll look into extending the Kubernetes API with custom resources. The last part is all about the various plugins Kubernetes supports. Many aspects of Kubernetes operation are modular and designed for extension. We will examine the API aggregation layer and several types of plugins, such as custom schedulers, authorization, admission control, custom metrics, and volumes. Finally, we'll look into extending Kubectl and adding your own commands.
