Fundamentals of DevOps and Software Delivery

https://www.fundamentals-of-devops.com/

This book is a guide to software delivery: that is, all the processes, tools, and techniques that are required to run software in production and maintain it on an ongoing basis. In particular, this book is a guide to DevOps, one of the methodologies used today to make software delivery vastly more efficient. Whereas most DevOps content tends to focus primarily on culture and theory, this book is a hands-on guide that includes dozens of examples that walk you, step-by-step, through how to run real systems and real code. You’ll start with the basics—running a single server—and work all the way up to Kubernetes clusters, automated deployment pipelines, distributed data systems, and more.
