Complete Kubernetes Course - From BEGINNER to PRO

[@manidharanupoju]

I am a Kubernetes Engineer and this is an awesome resource covering almost everything related to Kubernetes, except a few things like writing Controllers. Amazing work!

Never clicked so fast on any video, anticipating this course for while after you announced it on linkedin, gald that you finally posted, looking forward to learning from it and many thanks for the efforts you put in to make this course(checked github repo couple of time), once finished watching, following, learning, practicing will be reviewing it also in comment, wish me luck

After coming back to Kubernetes after a 5+ year break, this was the perfect resource to get back up to speed on everything I had forgotten, as well as a fantastic introduction to many tools that reduce or obviate the manual tedium that can arise when administering a cluster. I can promise I'll be referring back to this video and its accompanying git repo many times over the coming weeks and months. Thank you!

[@blixenkrone]

Hey man, thanks a lot for this. I am a sr developer trying to up my knowledge into more devops based areas, and enjoyed following your tutorial. One thing to mention is that your python app image doesn't exist, so people will be stuck in the image pull state error around 3:46:00. Besides that, very good tutorial, thanks a lot!

[@DevOpsDirective]

It doesn’t exist (for you) because it is a private repo on dockerhub. I debated if I should make it public or not, but keeping it private forces people to go through the process of learning how to build/push to their own repo and manage imagePullSecrets (if they make their repo private) Since the core part of the app still runs fine without the load generator I decided to keep my repo private. What do you think? Should I toggle it to public?

[@blixenkrone]

@@DevOpsDirective Ah right, that makes complete sense. It didn't occur to me that you wanted us to build and push the docker image to our own registry and create the secret to solve the pod error. I did initially wonder how adding our own personal credentials should make it able for us to pull from your private image registry, but shrugged it off to quickly since the Python application is a sort of a "bonus" part. I don't think the image should be public necessarily, perhaps the video explanation around this part is a bit too implicit, although I may have just skipped the part too quickly. Anyway, liked and subscribed, I am now going to dive into your Terraform course. Cheers man.

[@satishvutti]

Good to see your answers from real industry related issues/queries. One more which I am intrigued by is how to handle vulnerabilities in k8s clusters. Suppose if they are found in the product or in the container images post project completion, what SOPs we can suggest irrespective of underlying tech stack and how should we establish a process (I know this may not be so technical but wondering how we create one such agreement with customers). Thoughts pls

[@DevOpsDirective]

You can complete the course with any kubernetes cluster. Throughout the course I use Civo, Goolge Cloud, and a local KinD (Kubernetes in Docker) cluster. Any of these work for nearly all of the course. There are some specific examples where I show something specific to a particular cloud, but those are rare. I'd suggest using the KinD cluster so you don't have to worry about anything cloud related and you will be able to do 95% of the course!

Sid - I've enjoyed your presentation and detail here as others mention. I am getting tripped up with civo though; I'm continually getting a bearer token is invalid or expired while attempting to save the api key as in this step: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIWbZ6t3qbdpfNE. While I'm trying to skill-up on civo's docs, do you have a pointer for my error to research/validate?

[@DevOpsDirective]

Are you able to create resources via the Civo web portal? If so, that would isolate the issue to just the CLI Beyond that I would just say try to follow the docs here www.civo.com/docs/overview/civo-cli

[@cramproductions1212]

@@DevOpsDirective Thanks for the reply - I can create resources in the web portal. I've engaged with their support - the only civo command I can run is to use the -help parameter. Everything besides that is returning the same error. Both in shell or where I've installed it outright. Fun! :)

[@cramproductions1212]

I may be missing something on my end, but does this install via devbox deal with a civo.config file?

I was missing a civo.json pointer here. The course material that I was working through here had not addressed this or didn't have this set - every time I executed civo it errored with not authd'' messages.

It should have been installed by devbox, but you can use the instructions here if that isn’t working for you github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cloud-provider-kind

@@DevOpsDirective Wow thanks Sid for replying so quickly, I tried this earlier and had the same error output. I finally worked out what the problem was just now after retrying your suggestion. When I was running the "devbox shell' CMD and it was building out the environment it was complaining of a Go compiler version mismatch which I ignored as all the tools seemed to work up until this point. I just installed the tool version Go compiler (go version go1.23.1) with GVM and rebuilt the devbox shell with no compiler mismatch errors outputted this time and all works now :) I'm new to development and Devops tooling in general so it was a good learning experience encountering this problem.

I've tried listing the api keys but I keep getting this message.

[@DevOpsDirective]

I'm assuming you are talking about for the Civo CLI? The CLI stores its config in a file at ~/.civo.json You can either: 1. Manually update the incorrect API key with a new correct one 2. Delete the file entirely and then go through the setup process again to add a new API key Hope that helps!

Conceptually kind of like terraform but for installing software instead of provisioning infrastructure. It allows me to specify a set of tools + versions that will be the same across everyone’s system and avoid people running into issues with different versions of things.
