Description
The Amazon EKS simplifies the process of running Kubernetes on AWS by eliminating the need to build, manage and maintain your own Kubernetes control plane. In this course, you will explore how to effectively utilise Amazon EKS for Kubernetes container management and orchestration.
During the AWS training, you will learn the step-by-step process of constructing an Amazon EKS cluster. This includes setting up the necessary environment, deploying the cluster, and incorporating applications into it. Additionally, you will gain knowledge on automating application deployment and utilising Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) for efficient container image management.
The course also covers the implementation of CI/CD techniques for streamlined application releases. You will discover how to leverage continuous integration and continuous delivery methods to automate the deployment process and ensure efficient software delivery.
Furthermore, the training delves into the use of metrics, logging, tracing, and both horizontal and vertical scaling to effectively monitor and scale your environment. The course emphasizes designing for effectiveness, affordability, and resilience, providing you with the knowledge and skills required to create and maintain a robust container ecosystem.
