Writing a Kubernetes Operator in Java

Kubernetes is much more than a runtime platform for Docker containers. Through its API not only can you create custom clients, but you can also extend Kubernetes. Those custom Controllers are called Operators and work with application-specific custom resource definitions.

Not only can you write those Kubernetes operators in Go, but you can also do this in Java. Within this book, you will be guided through setting up and your first explorations of the Kubernetes API within a plain Java program. We explore the concepts of resource listeners, programmatic creation of deployments and services and how this can be used for your custom requirements.
