Creating a Service Mesh with Istio and Kubernetes Training Course

This instructor-led, live training in South Africa (online or onsite) is aimed at advanced-level platform engineers and DevOps professionals who wish to master scaling applications using microservices and Kubernetes.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Design and implement scalable microservices architectures.
• Deploy and manage applications on Kubernetes clusters.
• Utilize Helm charts for efficient service deployment.
• Monitor and maintain the health of microservices in production.
• Apply best practices for security and compliance in a Kubernetes environment.

This live, instructor-led training in South Africa (available online or onsite) is tailored for Kubernetes professionals seeking to prepare for the CKS certification.

Upon completion of this course, participants will understand how to secure Kubernetes environments and container-based applications across all stages of an application's lifecycle: build, deployment, and runtime.

This intensive 7-day programme offers a thorough, practical exploration into the design, deployment, and operation of cloud-native applications through contemporary DevOps methodologies.

Attendees will examine techniques for constructing scalable microservices architectures, optimising container environments, and managing production workloads via Kubernetes. The curriculum encompasses advanced deployment tactics, GitOps-driven automation, and observability frameworks designed to guarantee system reliability and performance.

Significant emphasis is placed on real-world operational hurdles, such as incident response, failure simulation, and root cause analysis. The programme culminates with the integration of AI-powered tools to facilitate troubleshooting and expedite operational decision-making.

Upon completion of this training, participants will possess a robust understanding of how to construct, deploy, monitor, and sustain resilient distributed systems within a Kubernetes-based ecosystem.

Learn the fundamentals of containers, Kubernetes, and OpenShift through practical, hands-on training tailored for developers, DevOps engineers, and IT professionals. Participants will learn how to build containerized applications, deploy workloads, manage Kubernetes resources, and utilise OpenShift to streamline modern application delivery in cloud and hybrid environments.

Learn how to build, deploy and administer containerized environments using Docker, Kubernetes and OpenShift. This five-day, hands-on training covers container images, Kubernetes workloads, cluster networking, storage, security, monitoring and practical OpenShift administration. Participants gain the skills needed to operate modern container platforms and troubleshoot applications across development and production environments.

In this instructor-led, live training South Africa (onsite or remote), participants will learn how to create and manage Docker containers, then deploy a sample application inside a container. Participants will also learn how to automate, scale, and manage their containerized applications within a Kubernetes cluster. Finally, the training goes on to more advanced topics, walking participants through the process of securing, scaling and monitoring a Kubernetes cluster.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Set up and run a Docker container.
• Deploy a containerized server and web application.
• Build and manage Docker images.
• Set up a Docker and Kubernetes cluster.
• Use Kubernetes to deploy and manage a clustered web application.
• Secure, scale and monitor a Kubernetes cluster.

Training Objectives: Acquire theoretical and practical skills in Docker and Kubernetes.
