Description
Welcome to this course on Kubernetes - the only course you need to take to get started with the fundamentals of Kubernetes. This course is aimed at Kubernetes beginners, with zero knowledge of Kubernetes. After you have completed the course, you will be ready to deploy your own applications to a Kubernetes environment.
Kubernetes is a Container Orchestration Engine that was developed by Google and then later open-sourced. It was built to solve many of the challenges with running containers on a large scale. There’s no denying that Kubernetes has now become the de-facto gold standard for container orchestration - and Kubernetes continues to rise in popularity as the most adopted container orchestration tool.
I have distilled my professional experience of using Kubernetes in real-world large-scale enterprise-grade projects for years into this particular course so that you can benefit from it without having to spend countless hours going through the hoops. I am also a Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) & a Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD).
Learning Kubernetes is an absolute must for any DevOps professional these days. So, if you are on the fence, dive right in and follow along on this exciting journey.
This course emphasizes learning by doing hands-on lessons. Every major concept has a theory section followed by a hands-on tutorial!
