Learning Kubernetes can feel overwhelming at first

Описание: Learning Kubernetes can feel overwhelming at first.

But if you break it down step-by-step — it starts making a lot more sense.

Here’s a clear roadmap I follow (and suggest to others):

1️⃣ Start with Core Concepts
Understand what Kubernetes is, how the cluster works, and what roles nodes and the control plane play.

2️⃣ Move to Workloads
Learn about Deployments, ReplicaSets, Jobs, and how Kubernetes runs your applications.

3️⃣ Understand Networking
How services communicate inside and outside the cluster using ClusterIP, NodePort, Ingress, etc.

4️⃣ Explore Storage & Config
Learn how Volumes, Persistent Volumes, and ConfigMaps/Secrets work together to store data and configs.

5️⃣ Don’t skip Security
RBAC, Service Accounts, Secrets, and TLS — it’s critical to build secure clusters from Day 1.

6️⃣ Finally, Deployment Tools
Start using kubectl, YAML files, Helm Charts, and even CI/CD or GitOps with tools like ArgoCD or Flux.

Take one section at a time — don’t try to learn everything in a week.

I’m still learning every day.
But starting with a clear structure makes it so much easier. 💡
