Kubernetes (k8s) has become the industry standard for container orchestration, offering powerful solutions for deploying and managing applications at scale. However, the transition to Kubernetes can be complex for engineers that are unfamiliar with it's terminology, components, and ecosystem.

We'll dive into the essentials of deploying a PHP application using Kubernetes. Starting with an overview of k8s architecture and core concepts, building a cluster, deploying a containerized PHP app, and then managing resources within a cluster.

By the end of this session you'll have a practical understanding of Kubernetes, how it applies to you as an engineer, and where to learn more so you can take the helm.
