About the Book
Discover Kyverno the Visual Way!
Kubernetes gives you powerful building blocks to define and enforce how your workloads should behave. Kyverno brings policy management to Kubernetes, but understanding its concepts, policy types, CEL expressions, and tools can quickly become challenging.
In this book, Aurélie Vache makes Kyverno accessible through a unique collection of clear, illustrated sketchnotes.
Updated for Kyverno 1.19 (in August 2026), this visual guide takes you from the basics of Kyverno to advanced policy management, security, testing, and troubleshooting, step by step.
Inside, you’ll find:
- What Kyverno is, why you might use it, and how it works
- Kyverno's main components and architecture
- CEL and how it is used to write policies
- Rules and the different policy types: ValidatingPolicy, MutatingPolicy, GeneratingPolicy, DeletingPolicy, and ImageValidatingPolicy
- How to validate, mutate, generate, clean up, and verify images
- RBAC and the permissions Kyverno needs to operate
- Policy Reports and how to understand policy results
- Policy Exceptions for handling legitimate exceptions to your policies
- How to test your policies before and after deploying them
- Practical troubleshooting techniques when your policies don't behave as expected
- Deprecated and removed policies you need to know about
- Useful Kyverno tools, including the Kyverno CLI, Policy Reporter, and Chainsaw
- A handy glossary of Kyverno terminology
- And practical “How To” examples paired with visual guides to help you understand Kyverno concepts quickly.
Whether you're a developer, platform engineer, DevOps engineer, security engineer, or simply curious about Kubernetes Policy-as-Code, this book turns Kyverno concepts into simple, memorable visuals.
Make your Kyverno learning journey easier, and a lot more fun!
