Hey everyone! I'm diving into Kubernetes since my company is moving towards using it for cloud security, and I want to get a solid understanding of it. I only know the basics right now, but I'm eager to learn everything I can. My ultimate goal is to get a security certification but right now, I just want to familiarize myself with Kubernetes. I've heard people mention 'Kubernetes the Hard Way' and found a GitHub repo for it. Is that a good resource for really understanding Kubernetes? Thanks for your help!

I’d actually recommend skipping 'Kubernetes the Hard Way.' It can be really complicated and doesn’t focus on just using Kubernetes. Instead, try a kubeadm install — it's more practical and will save you time. You’ll learn ways to use Kubernetes without diving too deep into all the underlying setups that are already automated in many distributions.
I followed 'Kubernetes the Hard Way' and found it helpful for understanding the complexity of setting up clusters. It made me appreciate managed solutions like EKS much more, even if it was just for learning.
