Kubernetes

Kubernetes is an open-source system that can "elastically" manage and deploy enterprise applications at scale.

Our beginner course explains the fundamentals of Kubernetes, using the analogy of a food truck owner scaling up to a restaurant...

Let's Explore Kubernetes:

Introduction

Learning Objectives

Understand infrastructure scaling challenges faced in the IT Industry

Identify the correct Cloud Design to positively impact your development teams

Recognise that short term fixes have long term costs and inefficiencies

Throughout this course we are going to follow the journey of Tommy, who is looking for a better way of scaling food delivery to his customers.

Organisations struggle just like Tommy to take the quality of their product (application) at small scale and move it to work at large scale whilst also maintaining the consistency (uptime) and quality (responsiveness). We often see businesses try to manually recreate individual, custom environments to fix the immediate problem, but these are often short term fixes that add additional cost and complexity instead of fixing the fundamentals that allow efficient and proper scaling.

That's where Kubernetes comes in. We'll talk more about Kubernetes as we explore this issue.
