TrackIt Blogs

Born in the cloud in 2014, TrackIt was among the earliest adopters of Docker and Kubernetes. Often used in tandem, the difference between them is that Docker packages containerize applications on a single node, whereas Kubernetes is designed to run them across a cluster. TrackIt’s ties to the original Docker team and deep expertise in DevOps facilitated it to be among the first software companies that opted to Dockerize applications. 

Over the past few years, TrackIt’s team of software and DevOps engineers has not only deepened its expertise and expanded into Kubernetes development but has also gained proficiency in sharing this expertise with organizations that are considering Kubernetes for the orchestration of their containers. 

Why the Need for a Kubernetes Training?

Despite its popularity, Kubernetes may not always be the most suitable choice for a company looking to manage and automate its containerized applications. The TrackIt team designed the Kubernetes Training to help organizations gain a better understanding of Kubernetes and its applicability to their requirements.

Who is the Kubernetes Training for?

The Kubernetes Training is designed for senior engineering executives and DevOps teams who are looking to gain a better understanding of Kubernetes and its viability in relation to their organization’s requirements. 

What is Covered in the Kubernetes Training?

There are two parts to the Kubernetes Training: 

• Part 1 – Kubernetes In-Depth Intro (2 hours): An in-depth introduction to Kubernetes that will allow executives to decide whether Kubernetes is the right fit for their organization.

1. Introduction to containers
2. Container orchestration with Kubernetes
3. Managed (Amazon EKS for example) vs. Unmanaged

• Part 2 – Kubernetes Lab (2 hours): A live demonstration that shows engineering/DevOps teams how to design, deploy, and maintain their Kubernetes environments by following best practices.

1. Deployment demonstration
2. Creating a new cluster
