This course teaches microservices application designs using CNCF framework. You will learn how to design micro-services applications and manage them using Docker and Kubernetes. You will learn how to handle the challenges of microservices applications and be able to select the right tools to help with that challenge.

A full day is dedicated to hands-on workshop working with a real-life e-commerce micro service application.

At the end of the training course, attendees will know how to design microservices applications, be able to select the right tools and technologies from the CNCF landscape and be able to manage a microservice application using Docker and Kubernetes. The concepts discussed here are applicable to any polyglot micro-services application.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

• Application developers
• DevOps
• Systems engineers
• System integrators
