Introduction to Containers w/ Docker, Kubernetes & OpenShift

Containers across the stack

This intermediate course introduces container tools and technologies, covering Docker, Kubernetes and OpenShift in one pass. It explains why containerization lets applications move between desktop, on-premises and cloud environments with less friction.

Skills the course lists

• Docker and containerization fundamentals
• Kubernetes and OpenShift for orchestrating containers
• Microservices, YAML and command-line configuration
• Istio and cloud-native deployment practices

Who it suits

Developers and DevOps staff who want a survey of the container ecosystem rather than an in-depth study of one platform. Because it covers several tools in one course, expect breadth first and use follow-up courses for depth.
