Course Description

Containerization has transformed the world of software development and operation. With the increasing demand for container-based technology like docker, there is a need for container orchestration tools to handle the number of containers. Kubernetes and Docker Swarm are the two major players in the container orchestration market.

Docker swarm is Docker’s own container’s orchestration with the same command-line interface (CLI) as is used for Docker containers whereas Kubernetes is a cloud-native infrastructure tool originally developed by Google and now is handed over to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) for enhancement and maintenance of Kubernetes.

Both Kubernetes and Docker Swarm are open-source COE (Container Orchestration Engine), run Docker containers and offer the same functionalities:

  • Scalability.

  • Load Balancing.

  • Service Discovery.

  • High Availability.

  • Auto replication.

  • Auto restart.

  • Security and much more.

But there are some differences as well which make us confused to choose between them. Docker, Docker Swarm, and Kubernetes are tools that make life easier for technology professionals. To make use of these amazing resources, you need to understand their relative strengths and capabilities. In this course, you'll learn all the fundamental concepts, strengths, capabilities, differences and much more with lots of hands-on practical implementation of Kubernetes and Docker Swarm. 

Both of them are powerful and popular now it's your choice to choose them according to the requirement.

Goals

  • Learn the fundamental concepts of Kubernetes and docker swarm.
  • Learn to create Kubernetes YAML files.
  • Learn how to scale up/down an application using Kubernetes and Docker Swarm.
  • Learn to deploy high availability, fault tolerance, and scalable applications.
  • Learn to build multiple Linux hosts with the help of docker-machine.
  • Learn to create a docker swarm.
  • Learn to do easy updates and rollback of applications.
  • Deploy a microservice app using both CLI and YAML.
  • Learn to create docker services.
  • Learn about ReplicaController, ReplicaSet and Deployment.

Prerequisites

  • Must have Hyper V capabilities on the system.
  • Have a GitHub and docker hub account.
  • The idea of system administration and Linux commands will be good (Not mandatory).
