Course Overview
Kubernetes has become the industry standard for operating container-based applications. Whether your organization seeks to deploy web applications for internal or external customers, operate a Spark big-data cluster, or run ML training and inference, chances are you will want to use a Kubernetes cluster. Out of the box, Kubernetes enables high availability, self-healing, rapid deployment rates, and independence from any specific cloud provider.
The third updated version of our flagship Kubernetes course addresses the platform's main challenge: its complexity and vast ecosystem. We cover the fundamentals of building applications on Kubernetes, bridging the gap between administration and solution architecture.
Students will learn to effectively architect applications by understanding Kubernetes principles and paradigms. Through guided labs, they will explore Kubernetes infrastructure and deploy various applications. The course also covers application security and building robust, adaptive solutions.
