Immerse yourself in the transformative power of Kubernetes with our Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA) Training course. This course is meticulously designed to imbue learners with a strong foundational knowledge and practical skills necessary for developing a Kubernetes architectural proof of concept. The journey through this course will enable learners to identify the technical and practical requirements in a Kubernetes setup and subsequently develop a solution architecture within Kubernetes. As learners delve deeper, they will also prepare a technical blueprint for a Kubernetes-based solution focusing on crucial aspects like security and storage, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of deploying and managing applications within a Kubernetes environment.

Transitioning to real-world application, this course emphasizes on demonstrating a Kubernetes solution for a specific business problem, thereby allowing learners to apply their acquired knowledge in practical scenarios. Additionally, the course covers the implementation of regular monitoring of the Kubernetes system and performing necessary troubleshooting, which are essential skills for maintaining a robust and efficient Kubernetes environment. Through a blend of theoretical learning and practical exercises, learners will not only be well-prepared for the Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA) exam but also be empowered with the ability to leverage Kubernetes for solving complex business problems and significantly contribute to their organization's technological advancements.

This course is a good start for an introduction to IoT. For further exploration into the topic, some embedded system knowledge or experience is essential. (Posted on 6/20/2018)

Deepak, the instructor, was excellent in course content, delivery and execution. Also a very helpful person when participants were having difficulties with their projects. Review by Course Participant/Trainee

I recommend a slightly bigger table for more table space and for the LCD projector to be located from the ceiling to improve on workspace for more participant comfort.

There were five participants in the class and I found that the table and seating space between each participant was a little cramp. Space between my 14.5 inch screen laptop to the next person's laptop was less than 6 inches. Not much table space for my IOT board, and paper notebook to rest on for taking handwritten notes. Also the LCD projector occupied quite a bit of space on the already small table. (Posted on 6/18/2018)
