CKAD exam review
Requirements
To get the most out of this course, you should have:
Basic Linux command line and file editing skills and be familiar with using a programming language (such as Python, Node.js, Go). Knowledge of Cloud Native application concepts and architectures (such as is taught in our free Introduction to Kubernetes edX MOOC) is helpful for this course.
Please note, Kubernetes Administration (LFS458) is not a pre-requisite for this course. There is overlap in the course materials as each one is designed to stand alone and aligns with the related exams.
Audience
This course is for experienced application developers who need to containerize, host, deploy, and configure an application in a multi-node cluster.
Experience Level: Intermediate
