Description
Kubernetes (also known as “K8S”) is one of the hottest topics right now, and engineers with K8S skills are in big demand.
Get those skills with this course! It’s is a great chance to work on a real K8S project, and to get yourself to a high professional standard on real projects.
All the way through the course you’ll be working on realistic requirements – but you don’t need to be a coder or know any particular programming language – I’ve prepared for you a set of Docker images, and your job is to use Kubernetes to get these images running.
The system is a Microservice based architecture, and along the way we’ll look at design decisions and trade-offs you need to make when managing these complex systems. Note the course isn’t about how to design Microservices (although we’ll certainly be talking about that); the development work is done and we need to get the system running on a production cluster.
Who this course is for:
    Anyone wanting to use Kubernetes on live production projects
    We will be using AWS in the later sections of the course (optional); all AWS concepts are explained so this is a great start if you’re new to the cloud, but be aware that AWS do charge for usage.
Requirements
    Some previous knowledge of Docker is useful, but an overview is provided as part of the course
    Previous knowledge of AWS is useful for the later sections of the course; however all the concepts are explained in detail and this would serve as a great first project on AWS
    We’ll be using the terminal throughout the course so some (basic) familiarity of terminal operations is assumed
