Overview

Your infrastructure works-until it doesn't. And when it fails, guesswork is expensive.Many readers start with an ubuntu server book, a linux server book, or a docker book for beginners-and quickly realize something is missing. Tutorials show commands, but they don't explain why systems behave the way they do under pressure, or what to do when things go wrong. If you're running Docker, experimenting with containers, or planning Kubernetes adoption on Ubuntu, this book is written for you. You've probably felt this already: You've read a linux system administration book, but real systems still feel fragile You can follow a docker compose book, yet production issues feel unpredictable You're learning from a devops book for beginners, but failure and recovery are barely discussed You're unsure whether Kubernetes is necessary-or just premature Cloud tutorials mention scale, but ignore responsibility, recovery, and trust This book teaches you how modern infrastructure actually works-on Ubuntu Running Modern Infrastructure on Ubuntu bridges the gap between learning tools and owning outcomes. It treats Ubuntu as the foundation for containerization with Docker, virtualization, and cloud systems-not as a passive operating system. You'll learn how cloud computing with Linux really behaves when infrastructure grows, scales, or partially fails, whether you're running on an ubuntu cloud server or on-prem systems. Instead of chasing tools, you'll develop operator-level judgment. Inside this book, you'll learn how to: Run Docker on Linux with host discipline and predictable behavior Use Docker Compose as real infrastructure-not just development tooling Decide when containers, virtual machines, or Kubernetes are actually justified Understand Kubernetes readiness before touching a kubernetes book for beginners Design systems that recover calmly instead of failing catastrophically Apply linux networking basics in containerized and cloud environments Think clearly about Linux for DevOps without overengineering You'll also get practical appendices covering: Infrastructure decision frameworks MicroK8s readiness checklists Cloud-init templates and debugging guides Real failure scenarios drawn from modern Linux systems Stop copying architectures you don't understand This is not another step-by-step docker book for beginners or a surface-level devops book for beginners. It's a practical guide for readers who want to move beyond tutorials and build infrastructure they can explain, trust, and recover. Buy Running Modern Infrastructure on Ubuntu today-and start thinking like an operator, not a tool installer.
