This is a step-by-step guide to building microservices using Python and Docker, along with managing and orchestrating them with Kubernetes. Author Jaime Buelta start by showing how to design an efficient strategy for migrating a legacy monolithic system to microservices before moving on to building a RESTful microservice with Python and showing how to encapsulate the code for the services into a container using Docker. As the systems become complex and grow in size, Kubernetes is introduced alongside how to orchestrate a system of containers while managing multiple services.
