Course Description

Short Course | 24 hours | 2.4 CEUs | $2,795

This Kubernetes course is designed to equip participants with the in-depth knowledge and practical skills necessary for the efficient administration and use of Kubernetes clusters. Covering a broad range of topics from core concepts and installation to advanced application lifecycle management and security, this course is structured to address the needs of professionals. The core concepts module introduces Kubernetes architecture, cluster communication, and fundamental Kubernetes objects, emphasizing the design and operation of cluster components, the importance of labels, selectors, and annotations.

Installation and configuration form a critical part of the course, guiding participants through the prerequisites, steps, and considerations for setting up Kubernetes in different environments. Special attention is given to the intricacies of installing a highly available control plane, ensuring students are well-versed in creating robust and scalable Kubernetes environments.

The course further delves into advanced topics such as application deployment, networking, storage, and security, offering hands-on experience with pod and container lifecycles, deployments, service discovery, and role-based access control, among others. These sections are designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of Kubernetes' capabilities in managing containerized applications, ensuring high availability, and securing cluster resources and access. Practical labs and demonstrations supplement the theoretical knowledge, offering participants the opportunity to apply what they've learned in real-world scenarios.

DEV575 is the third course in the DevOps II Professional Certificate. To complete the certificate students will also enroll in DEV500, & DEV525. Click on each course link for more details and to add to cart.
