My current and upcoming books:

2019.Programming Kubernetes will teach you how to use and extend Kubernetes programmatically in Go. We cover low-level Kubernetes API access using the client-go package, automated approaches (kubebuilder, etc.), the operator pattern as well as cloud native programming languages such as Pulumi and Ballerina. No matter if you want to customize Kubernetes to your needs with custom resources or develop Kubernetes native apps, this book will provide you with all you need.

2018.Kubernetes Security covers securing clusters, secure image builds and running containers, authn & authz, secrets, and more.

2018.Kubernetes Cookbook is a collection of recipies for developers and admins that my buddy Sébastien Goasguen and I put together.

2018.Container Networking covers container networking, focusing on CNI and Kubernetes.

2016. Serverless Ops—A Beginners Guide For Serverless Operations covers the serverless ecosystem and how to approach the serverless paradigm from an ops perspective.

Some of my active projects:

• Sharing thoughts around using cloud native technologies, incl. Kubernetes, observability tools, service meshes, and serverless offerings via boringis.cool.
• Maintaining tools and techniques around troubleshooting Kubernetes apps.
• Started to collect resources around stateful Kubernetes apps and tooling.
• Contributing to Kubeflow, the machine learning on Kubernetes environment.
• Creating KAML-D, the Kubernetes Advanced Machine Learning & Data Engineering Platform.
• Developing kubed-sh, the Kubernetes cluster shell for the casual cluster user.
• Keeping folks up-to-date on the emerging application area of Machine Learning on Kubernetes via kube-machine-learning.rocks.
• Helping people to learn Kubernetes via kubernetesbyexample.com.
• Writing a weekly newsletter via new.appops.info on all things appops, covering topics from Go to CI/CD pipelines to containers.
• Running the Cloud Native Ireland meetup as founder.
• Serving on Programme Commitees such as KubeCon + CloudNativeCon, O'Reilly Velocity, and Red Hat Summit.
• Speaking at events, for example: GopherCon, ContainerCamp, O'Reilly Velocity, ContainerSched, Software Circus, DevOpsCon, distributed matters, FOSDEM, O'Reilly Strata, Devoxx, Hadoop Summit, OSCON, Thingmonk, various user groups all over the place—most of my presentations are available via speakerdeck.com.

A list of all advocacy sites I've ever done is also available.
