This book describes how to use Kubernetes, which is an implementation of the open source, containerized application management platform from the upstream Kubernetes release. Oracle provides extra tools, testing, and support to deliver this technology with confidence. Kubernetes integrates with container products to handle more complex deployments where clustering might be used to improve the scalability, performance, and availability of containerized applications. Detail is provided on the basic features of Kubernetes and how it can be used in Oracle Cloud Native Environment (Oracle CNE).

This document describes functionality and usage available in the most current release of the product.
