Kubernetes Administration with RKE
This hands-on course provides the essential knowledge and practical skills required to install, configure, and manage production-grade Kubernetes, specifically leveraging the Kubernetes solutions offered by SUSE. Participants will explore the architectural differences between SUSE distributions like RKE2 and K3s, and gain proficiency in managing core objects, running diverse workloads, and implementing robust security through Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and network policies. The training emphasizes real-world operations, including cluster upgrades, backup and recovery using etcd, and application management with Helm. By the end of this course, students will be equipped to scale workloads, troubleshoot cluster-wide issues, and extend Kubernetes functionality using Operators and Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs). This course prepares students for the SCA in Rancher Kubernetes Engine 2 exam.
