Kubernetes for Developers Using EKS

• Familiar with Linux CLI and networking
• Familiar with Docker containers
• AWS Account to launch EKS clusters  (Free tier is not sufficient)

Kubernetes is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It was originally designed by Google and is now maintained by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. This course is for absolute Kubernetes beginners. With zero knowledge about Kubernetes, once you take this course, you will be ready to deploy your own applications on a Kubernetes platform. You will also learn how to work with AWS EKS cluster.
