This is a free Chinese-language ebook/handbook that teaches Kubernetes architecture and the cloud-native ecosystem, from container orchestration basics up through service mesh, serverless, and AI-native infrastructure.
This is a free Chinese-language ebook/handbook that teaches Kubernetes architecture and the cloud-native ecosystem, from container orchestration basics up through service mesh, serverless, and AI-native infrastructure.Is this a book or a hands-on tool?It is a written handbook (GitBook-style ebook), not software you install or run — it's meant to be read online or downloaded as a PDF.
It is a written handbook (GitBook-style ebook), not software you install or run — it's meant to be read online or downloaded as a PDF.How is the content organized and where do I start?The book walks from cloud-native concepts and Kubernetes basics (architecture, core components) toward more advanced ecosystem topics like service mesh and serverless, then into AI-native infrastructure, so a beginner should start from the introductory cloud-native/Kubernetes chapters.
