Course Description

This intensive 2-day Training introduces participants to container orchestration with Kubernetes through a project-centric approach. The program starts by building conceptual foundations and progressively dives deeper into key Kubernetes primitives, including Pods, ReplicaSets, Services, Deployments, Persistent Storage, and Ingress.

Participants will set up a complete orchestration system and deploy a polyglot microservices-based application iteratively, one lab at a time. The course also introduces advanced topics such as RBAC, Scheduling, HELM, ArgoCD, and troubleshooting of container orchestration platforms – all critical components of the CKA and CKAD certification exams.

While this course provides essential knowledge and hands-on experience with Kubernetes, you should note that additional practice and study will be necessary to prepare for certification exams fully. This Training serves as an accelerated foundation to jumpstart your certification journey. Perfect for DevOps professionals seeking to enhance their cloud-native skills.

Course Topics

This module introduces Kubernetes architecture and components, including control plane, nodes, and the kubectl client. Learn to set up a Kubernetes cluster using KIND (Kubernetes IN Docker), understand the core concepts, and explore the role of each component in the orchestration system. Hands-on labs include installing and configuring a multi-node environment and setting up visualization tools to observe the cluster in action.

This module covers essential Kubernetes primitives, focusing on Pods, Namespaces, and ReplicaSets. Learn to write and manage Pod specifications, create multi-container pods, and understand namespaces for multi-tenancy.

Explore how ReplicaSets provide high availability and scalability through hands-on deployment of containerized applications. Practical labs include troubleshooting common Pod issues, implementing persistent storage, and managing application scaling.

This session focuses on networking and application deployment strategies in Kubernetes. Learn about Service types (ClusterIP, NodePort, LoadBalancer), discovering and exposing applications, and implementing zero-downtime deployments.

Understand deployment specifications, strategies, and rollbacks while implementing real-world deployment patterns. Hands-on exercises include creating services with different access types and implementing rolling updates with deployment resources.

This module explores advanced Kubernetes topics including persistent storage, RBAC security, Ingress controllers, and introduces package management with HELM and GitOps with ArgoCD. Learn certification-relevant skills for troubleshooting and real-world implementation. Understand the CKA and CKAD exam formats, practice exam-style scenarios, and create a personalized study path to certification success.

Certification Assessments

Complete the Kubernetes Certification Preparation training and earn a Participation Certificate. This training builds the foundation required for the industry-recognized CKA (Certified Kubernetes Administrator) and CKAD (Certified Kubernetes Application Developer) certifications from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF).

While this training alone will not fully prepare you for these hands-on, performance-based exams, it provides the essential knowledge and practical experience to begin your certification journey. Participants should expect to spend additional time practicing and building projects after the training to fully prepare for certification success.

FAQs

It's an intensive, hands-on training program that builds a solid foundation in Kubernetes, focusing on the skills needed for the CKA and CKAD certification exams. You'll deploy and manage containerized applications while learning best practices for container orchestration.

This training provides an excellent foundation but is not sufficient on its own for exam success. The CKA and CKAD are hands-on, performance-based exams that require extensive practice. After completing this training, you'll need additional self-study and practice before attempting certification.

You'll set up a Kubernetes cluster, deploy microservices applications, implement scaling and high availability, configure networking and persistent storage, and troubleshoot common issues. All labs use real-world scenarios similar to certification exam tasks.

Basic Linux/Unix system fundamentals and familiarity with command-line interfaces are required. Prior experience with containers (Docker/Podman) is helpful but not mandatory. You'll need a laptop with at least 8GB RAM, 4 CPU cores, and 10GB available disk space.

The course spans two full days with 12 modules covering Kubernetes fundamentals through advanced topics. Each module includes theoretical concepts followed by hands-on labs that build upon each other to create a complete, functioning application environment.

CKA (Certified Kubernetes Administrator) focuses on cluster setup, maintenance, security, and troubleshooting. CKAD (Certified Kubernetes Application Developer) emphasizes deploying and configuring applications. This training provides foundational knowledge relevant to both paths.

You'll need Docker Desktop (or Podman), kubectl, KIND, and HELM installed. Detailed installation instructions will be provided prior to the training to ensure your environment is properly configured.

Throughout the two days, you'll iteratively build and enhance a microservices application environment. Each lab adds new components and capabilities, allowing you to see how different Kubernetes resources work together in a realistic scenario.

Yes! Participants receive all lab materials, reference documentation, and a curated reading list including recommended resources for further study toward certification. We also provide guidance on creating a personal certification study plan.

Yes! The course is offered in both in-person and live virtual formats, ensuring the same expert-led instruction and hands-on labs regardless of delivery method.

Both exams are 2-hour, hands-on, performance-based tests where you solve tasks in a live Kubernetes environment. The exams focus on practical skills rather than multiple-choice questions. Our training introduces you to similar scenarios to build foundational skills.

Payment can be made via debit/credit cards (MasterCard, Visa, American Express) or PayPal. You'll receive an email confirmation once the payment is processed.

Cancellation requests received within 24 hours of registration will be offered a full refund (minus payment gateway charges). Please reach out to our support team with your refund request. Visit our page for more details about our Cancellation & Refund Policy.
