Kubernetes

Some kubernetes overview links, with a focus on networking.

Terminal Enhancements

k9s

Get it here. My go-to cluster navigator of choice. Very vim-like in behavior.

k3s / kind / minikube

For local development: - k3s: Lightweight Kubernetes, great for IoT and Edge but also amazing for local labs. - kind: Run Kubernetes inside Docker. Fast and reliable for CI/CD.

Cilium and eBPF

Modern Kubernetes networking is moving towards eBPF for performance and security. Cilium is the leading CNI in this space, replacing traditional iptables-based kube-proxy in many environments.
