Description
Kubernetes Deep Dive
Duration: 5 Days
What You Will Learn:
The purpose of this course is to teach our participants how everything fits together to run distributed applications in Kubernetes and learn how to start designing and operating application orchestration solutions.
Important Note:
Participants should receive Docker Fundamentals and Docker Deep Dive training before attending this course.
