K8SD2O
Kubernetes 2-Day Operations with CNCF («K8SD2O»)
Course facts
- Understanding the challenges and tasks of Kubernetes Day-2-Operations
- Acquiring the ability to analyse operational aspects in Kubernetes in a structured way
- Getting to know central CNCF.io projects to solve typical tasks in operations
- Applying the tools to real scenarios using an end-to-end case study
- Developing a tool stack for productive Kubernetes environments
The productive operation of Kubernetes brings with it specific challenges – from security and scalability to monitoring and cost control. In this course, participants receive a practical overview of so-called Day-2-Operations.
Using an end-to-end example project, the course teaches how central tasks in productive Kubernetes operations can be solved efficiently. Participants will learn about a selection of relevant CNCF.io projects that support secure, high-performance and sustainable cluster operation.
- KTLO (Keep the Lights On)
- Security
- Change
- Optimierung
- Housekeeping
- Development: skaffold
- Setup & Operation: cert-manager, Harbor
- Operator Pattern using the example of frp (Fast Reverse Proxy), IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) etc.
- Security & Traffic: Istio, Zipkin, Kyverno
- Monitoring & Logging: Prometheus, Alertmanager, Fluentd
- Serving & Eventing: Knative, CloudEvents
- Storage & Databases: Longhorn, Vitess, CloudNativePG
- Multi-Cluster & Network: Cilium, eBPF
The interactive course includes keynote speeches, demonstrations and hands-on exercises using a sample project. Participants will learn about typical operational requirements and will use selected tools directly in the lab environment.
This course is aimed at DevOps engineers, system administrators, platform developers (Google: Site Reliability Engineers) as well as platform and infrastructure managers who are already familiar with Kubernetes and want to focus on productive operation.
Prior attendance of a Kubernetes course is a prerequisite. A basic understanding of Kubernetes clusters and container technologies is required.
The tools used are based on projects from CNCF.io, and the content is updated continuously.
