How do I start with Kubernetes?

How do I start with Kubernetes if I have no cluster and no idea where to begin?

One of the coolest things about Kubernetes is that you don't need much infrastructure to get started. You can simply spin up a Kubernetes Cluster on your machine and start discovering the platform. When you’re ready to run production workloads, you can move seamlessly to a managed service or your own servers - and your deployments will just work.

To give you a boost, there is a new step-by-step tutorial on how to start with Kubernetes and get your first deployment running in 50 minutes. In this walk-through you'll:

▻ Set up a Kubernetes Cluster on your machine ▻ Start a Pod ▻ Create a Deployment and Services ▻ Connect your App to a Database ▻ Scale the Deployment

And this is just the beginning, a future lab will cover more production-ready practices.
