Ultimate Kubernetes Virtualization with KubeVirt - Master KubeVirt, Virtual Machines on Kubernetes, Hybrid Infrastructure, Networking, Storage, High Availability, and Production Operations (English Edition) #986637

One Platform. Containers and Virtual Machines Together at Scale.

Book Description

Bridge Legacy Virtualization and Cloud-Native Innovation Without Compromise

Most organizations run Kubernetes for containers and Virtual Machines (VMs) for everything else. KubeVirt eliminates that divide, enabling teams to manage VMs directly within Kubernetes and modernise infrastructure without abandoning the existing investments. Ultimate Kubernetes Virtualization with KubeVirt gives you the practical depth to deploy, operate, and optimize KubeVirt in production environments.

You begin with Kubernetes and virtualization fundamentals, then advance through KubeVirt architecture, core components, and VM deployment on Kubernetes. The book covers networking and storage configuration, high availability, observability, and performance tuning, grounding every concept in real-world implementation examples and hands-on labs that reflect actual production challenges.

The final section addresses security, operational best practices, and an end-to-end real-world scenario that brings every concept together. By the end of the book, you will deploy, manage, and scale VMs on Kubernetes with confidence, bridging legacy VM workloads and cloud-native infrastructure using KubeVirt.

What you will learn
● Deploy and manage virtual machines directly inside production Kubernetes clusters using KubeVirt.
● Configure networking and storage for hybrid VM and container workloads on Kubernetes.
● Understand KubeVirt architecture, core components, and virtualization workflows in depth.
● Scale, secure, and optimize KubeVirt environments for enterprise production workloads.
● Implement high availability and observability for KubeVirt-managed VM infrastructure.
● Migrate legacy VM workloads into cloud-native Kubernetes environments using practical patterns.
