Cluster Administration Overview

The cluster administration overview is for anyone creating or administering a Kubernetes cluster. It assumes some familiarity with concepts in the User Guide.

Planning a cluster

See the guides in Picking the Right Solution for examples of how to plan, set up, and configure Kubernetes clusters. The solutions listed this article are called distros.
