“This was an excellent course and was lots of fun to attend. Instructor started with basic intro to containerization, then explained Kubernetes and the different components (Container engine, orchestrator, control plane) which all made sense because of the containerization intro. The parts of the course layered on top of one another to give a good understanding of
Kubernetes.” Live Online Nov 2020
NB NOTE: This course does not focus on one vendor’s tools. Most courses are vendor-locked. We use kubeadm to deploy the cluster and focus on tools that would work on anyone’s Kubernetes cluster.
