I've created a Free Kubernetes Learning course that I hope some of you will find useful, especially with Kubecon next week. Created this based on personal frustrations that I had when learning Kubernetes at first.
I found that some courses/technical resources gave a theoretical viewpoint of Kubernetes but didn't demonstrate these components directly in use. I also found that particular entities like the pause container were often overlooked, even though they were clearly shown in the video/course terminal output.
For this course I go with a slightly different approach. We configure our container runtime, setup a simple CNI driver and install Kubernetes. Then, we explore general usage. After that, we uncouple each component and re-attempt to run the same examples. As we do this we see where it does/doesn't work and bring online each component with an explanation of what it is and why it's important.
I Attended Kubecon back in 2019 on a Diversity scholarship. I have a type of Motor Neurone Disease which fortunately unlike most, is not terminal but it affects my walking (I use Nordic Walking poles for extra stability). At the time, I pledged as part of my application to make a free Kubernetes course and to give back to the community.
It took me longer than I anticipated but, here it is.
Thanks for your time.
