Ryan Schneider demonstrates how to build out a distributed system from ideation to production. You'll learn the essentials needed to develop a highly available and fault-tolerant architecture and gain insight into the practicalities of transitioning to this type of application architecture the right way.

What you'll learn, and how you can apply it

By the end of this live online course, you’ll understand:

  • Kubernetes Web UI
  • Persistent volumes
  • Kubernetes concepts
  • kubectl
  • Logging
  • Monitoring
  • Deployment lifecycles, strategies, and control
  • Storage and stateful applications
  • Optimizing and influencing pod scheduling
  • Backups and restores
  • Server maintenance
  • Jobs
  • Operators

And you’ll be able to:

  • Deploy a Kubernetes cluster
  • Containerize applications
  • Deploy applications
  • Manage and modify applications
  • Use ConfigMaps and secrets

Hardware and/or installation requirements:

  • A WiFi-enabled laptop with an up-to-date version of Chrome or Firefox installed
