Kubernetes from Basic to Advanced Training Course
Docker is an open-source platform for building, shipping and running applications inside containers. Kubernetes goes one step further by providing the tools needed to deploy and manage containerized applications at scale in a clustered environment.
In this instructor-led, live training (onsite or remote), participants will learn how to deploy a collection of sample servers inside containers, then automate, scale, and manage their containerized servers within a Kubernetes cluster. The training goes on to more advanced topics, walking participants through the process of securing, networking and monitoring a Kubernetes cluster.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Set up and run a Docker container.
- Deploy containerized databases and servers.
- Set up a Docker and Kubernetes cluster.
- Use Kubernetes to deploy and manage different environments under the same cluster.
- Secure, scale and monitor a Kubernetes cluster.
Format of the course
- Part lecture, part discussion, exercises and heavy hands-on practice.
Notes
- Different Docker images can be used as demos in this training (e.g., Nginx, MongoDB, Tomcat, etc.).
- To request specific images or any other customization for this training, please contact us to arrange.
