Docker and Kubernetes Fundamentals

3 Days

Description

Are you a developer, architect, or technical team lead without a foundational understanding of Kubernetes and Docker? To meet the demands of your workplace, you will need to have a strong grasp of the Kubernetes and Docker technologies in the development, production, and staging environments. 

This 3-day intensive Docker and Kubernetes Training course offers a combination of theoretical learning and actional labs, so you have the opportunity to apply your knowledge in a hands-on setting. The course covers essential Kubernetes and Docker skills, as well as a basic introduction to Continuous Integration.

Objectives

  • Learn the fundamental uses of container technology and the architectural principles of how to apply containers to technical challenges.
  • Create containers with both packaged solutions and custom software.
  • Use the Docker and Kubernetes CLI environments to deploy solutions in local (Docker) and cluster (Kubernetes) environments.
  • Learn how stateful services – such as databases, streaming solutions , and other specialty applications  – can be deployed in highly-available configurations with redundancy and service-discovery/load-balancing.
  • Show how other components – can be used to integrate services within the Kubernetes platform.
  • Explore how Docker and technologies such as Jenkins can be used to continuously test and build containers based on changes to source code.

Topics

  • Docker and Linux Container Technology
  • Docker in Action
  • Managing Docker State
  • Open Container Initiative and Container Runtime Interface
  • Kubernetes Architecture
  • Working with Kubernetes
  • Kubernetes Workload
