The ability to administer and monitor a Kubernetes cluster is in high demand today. To meet this need, the Cloud Native Computing Foundation developed a certification exam to establish an administrator's credibility and value in the job market to confidently work in a Kubernetes environment. The Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) certification exam is different from the typical multiple-choice format of other professional certifications. Instead, the CKA is a performance-based exam that requires deep knowledge of the tasks under immense time pressure. This study guide walks you through all the topics covered to fully prepare you for the exam. Author Benjamin Muschko also shares his personal experience with preparing for all aspects of the exam. Learn when and how to apply Kubernetes concepts to administer and troubleshoot a production-grade cluster Understand the objectives, abilities, and tips and tricks needed to pass the CKA exam Explore the ins and outs of the kubectl command-line tool Demonstrate competency to perform the responsibilities of a Kubernetes administrator Solve real-world Kubernetes problems in a hands-on command-line environment Effectively navigate and solve questions during the CKA exam

DESCRIPTION Gradle is the next step in JVM-based build tools. It draws on lessons learned from established build tools like Ant and Maven, incorporating and improving upon their best ideas, like full flexibility and convention over configuration. In Gradle, problem domains are declaratively modeled using a powerful Groovy DSL instead of cumbersome XML. As a result, builds are far more expressive, extensible, and testable. Gradle in Action is a comprehensive guide to end-to-end project automation with Gradle. Starting with the basics, this practical, easy-to-read book discusses how to build a full-fledged, real-world project. Along the way, it touches on advanced topics like testing, continuous integration, and monitoring code quality. It also covers tasks like setting up target environments and deploying software. RETAIL SELLING POINTS Practical real-world examples Gradle from the ground up Takes software delivery processes to the next level. AUDIENCE No prior experience with Groovy required. This book assumes basic knowledge of Java. ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY Build automation is key to implementing Continuous Delivery, a hot topic these days. Enterprises want to ship software, fast and repeatable. Gradle, a powerful and expressive build tool, plays an important role as an enabling tool to support the build and deployment process.
