SUSE Kubernetes Administration KUB201v1
This three-day, partner-delivered course provides a practical, hands-on introduction to containers and Kubernetes administration. Designed for technical professionals new to Kubernetes, the course begins with core container and orchestration concepts before progressing into real-world Kubernetes operations.
Participants will explore Kubernetes architecture and workflows, learning how to deploy and manage applications, configure networking, storage, and security, and administer clusters using standard Kubernetes tools. The course also introduces Helm and Helm charts for application packaging and deployment, along with modern configuration management techniques using ConfigMaps, Secrets, Kustomize, and resource controls.
Extensive hands-on labs reinforce each concept, enabling learners to confidently administer Kubernetes clusters in development and production environments. AI-assisted workflows are included to demonstrate how LLM tools can accelerate configuration creation and troubleshooting.
