What attendees will learn
This course is designed to prepare technical staff for the CKAD exam with an in-depth look at:
- Define Kubernetes application resources
- Cloud Native Application configuration for Kubernetes
- Manage persistent state
- Observability with monitoring, logging, and probes
- Kubernetes Services and Networking
- Debug and troubleshoot applications
Prerequisites
Suggested prerequisites for the CKAD Kubernetes Boot Camp are our Docker Foundation and Kubernetes Foundation courses or equivalent knowledge of containers, images, container orchestration, and Kubernetes architecture. The attendee should also have some practical experience, production or otherwise, with Kubernetes (RX-M offers self study materials that can be used to prepare for the class). Each attendee must provide their own laptop with the ability to run a 64-bit virtual machine. Unconstrained internet access is also required to complete the student hands-on lab exercises.
