The Intermediate Kubernetes training course targets students with a basic understanding of Kubernetes who want to dive deeper into the details of how Kubernetes is architected, more advanced Kubernetes concepts such as Jobs, DaemonSets and Ingress Controllers, plus the future of Kubernetes container management with the Container Runtime interface and how that relates to Kubernetes relationship with Docker.
The course begins with students participants learning the high level design of Kubernetes as well as the lower level components and how Docker containers (and other container runtimes) fit in. Next the course will dive into Docker's architecture, how Kubernetes uses Docker to run containers, and how to change Kubernetes to use the Containered Plugin for CRI. The course concludes with students learning the fundamental and most heavily used components required for deploying applications.
Before attending this course, students should take the Introduction to Kubernetes course or be familiar with all of the topics listed here: Introduction to Kubernetes. Cloud Native concepts and distributed systems architecture will be covered during the course.
