Start to Finish Containerization and Orchestration for Developers is a hands-on liveVideo course that guides you through web development techniques for Kubernetes-based applications. It’s full of practical best practices that will ensure your web apps are optimized for containerization. As you go, you’ll learn the essential concepts of Kubernetes you need to survive in a container-first world.

You’ll dive into Kubernetes configuration and secrets management, and collect must-know techniques for Kubernetes resource usage, central application ingress, application storage, and application authentication. You’ll even dip into logging and metrics tracking from a unique application perspective. When you’re done, you’ll be well-prepared to both guide legacy applications or brand new software through a transition to Kubernetes-based deployment.

The SecurityNewsSource app runs on Kubernetes, and in this liveProject you’ll be boosting its resilience and scalability with modern cloud native practices. Your challenges will include horizontally scaling the service without reducing functionality, allowing Kubernetes to monitor liveness and readiness, and setting up monitoring systems to keep an eye on important metrics. You’ll also make important adjustments to improve the service’s security, all to ensure that SecurityNewsSource’s customers keep getting essential alerts without disruption.
