Day 1+2 Kubernetes Fundamentals

The Kubernetes Fundamentals (CKAD) introduces participants to container orchestration with Kubernetes. Attendees will master the foundational concepts of Kubernetes in development and production through a combination of presentations, demos, and hands-on labs, including building and deploying Kubernetes applications, Cloud Native Continuous Delivery, and cluster monitoring and debugging. This course also covers system components, core resources, and the requirements for minimum viable cluster security.

Day 3 Prisma Cloud Security Platform

This cloud-native security workshop will familiarise participants with Prisma Cloud to secure cloud-native applications across development lifecycles and on any cloud.
You'll learn how to use Prisma Cloud in real-life scenarios.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Day 4+5 Kubernetes Operations

The Kubernetes Operations course builds on CKAD - Kubernetes Fundamentals by digging deeper into how Kubernetes works. It covers advanced features and use-cases to prepare engineers for the day-to-day reality of creating, maintaining and debugging Kubernetes clusters in production.

Learning outcomes

  • Gain a deep understanding of containers and experience first hand how they are relevant to the modern web stack through Kubernetes. 
  • Install and configure a Kubernetes cluster, containerise and deploy an application, secure its networking, and securely provision secrets into the cluster.  
  • Understand how to run production Kubernetes clusters, including a range of topology and upgrade approaches, automated deployment and rollback strategies, and low-level cluster maintenance challenges. 
  • Cluster debugging exercises strengthen attendees’ skills with hands-on scenarios intended to challenge their understanding
  • Gain an operational understanding of networking, storage and ingress, as well as failure detection and remediation with testing patterns for clusters and workloads. 
  • Network security and enterprise RBAC patterns, and practice with hands-on debugging scenarios provide concrete examples of production failure cases and debugging workflows.
  • Secure Cloud Native Application Delivery with Prisma Cloud
