In this hands-on training you'll master the complete path from your first containerization to a production Kubernetes deployment. You'll learn how to package your applications securely, roll them out automatically and scale them.
Your key takeaways:
- Building containers: Writing Dockerfiles and building images for your applications
- Deploying to production: Concepts for setting up and managing a Kubernetes cluster
- Automation: Setting up CI/CD pipelines for error-free deployments
- Scaling: Scaling applications up and down automatically
- Monitoring: Logging and monitoring for stable services
After the training you'll be able to:
✅ Package your apps in containers and run them identically everywhere
✅ Operate Kubernetes clusters in production
✅ Eliminate "works on my machine" problems for good
✅ Fully automate your deployments
✅ Manage infrastructure as code

What you should know
Basic knowledge of Linux, Bash, network technologies and Git are useful foundations for this workshop. You will also need a laptop running Windows, macOS or Linux.
One week before the Docker & Kubernetes workshop, you will receive an email with step-by-step instructions to prepare your laptop for the training so that no valuable time is lost during the active training days.
For the training, we set up a dedicated cloud environment for all participants. In it, all exercises can be worked through, including more complex examples.
The course “Docker & Kubernetes” is aimed at Beginner.
