Introduction

A 3 day course led by experienced Kubernetes engineers covering a Kubernetes deep dive into networking and installation, advanced deployments and cluster administration. In this course, we show you how to manage a Kubernetes cluster in production to allow you to carry out sysadmin tasks effectively.

Who is this for?

This is intended for those with a basic working knowledge of Kubernetes, preferably having completed our ‘Introduction to Kubernetes’ training.

What will we deliver?

People-focused Specification

At LiveWyer, we also recognise that new technologies won’t reach their full potential without a trained team who are able to effectively interact with the technology. It’s important to get best practices in place right from the start of your Kubernetes journey to reduce technical debt in later stages of development.

  • Ask our certified Kubernetes administrators who have experience with multiple production environments questions around real world usage and scenarios
  • Keep your team up to date on the latest Kubernetes best practices
  • Ensure the smooth running of sysadmin tasks for your team, limiting the amount of manual work required

What are the benefits for your Kubernetes environment?

Scale and manage your applications with zero downtime

Ease of management for access control implementing RBAC across your cluster

Effectively maintain metrics and log visibility in a dynamic system
