Kubernetes Hands-on Workshop

Kubernetes is how you run Docker in production. Bring your laptop with Docker for Windows or Docker for Mac installed. We'll walk through getting a K8s cluster fired up on Docker-Desktop or Minikube, and on Azure. You'll be hosting Docker containers in development and production in no time.
Part I: Hello Docker

• Welcome to Docker: a look at the concepts and methodologies of Docker
• Hello Docker: build your first Docker container
• Multi-stage Build: upgrade your Dockerfile to industry best practices
• A Bigger Site: build Dockerfiles for two different apps so they can communicate

Part II: Hello Kubernetes

• Welcome to Kubernetes: a look at the concepts and methodologies of Kubernetes
• Deployment: create your first Kubernetes resources and start a Pod in K8s
• Service: add a load-balancer in front of your Pod to allow inbound traffic to the site
• A Bigger Site: leverage the Docker containers built in the Docker section, and deploy them as Kubernetes resources
• Rolling Update: perform a no-downtime deployment in Kubernetes

Part III: To the Cloud

• Docker Hub: get familiar with pushing images to Docker Hub or your chosen private registry
• Choosing a Cloud: let’s discuss what you’d consider when choosing a cloud
• Hello Cloud: on your chosen cloud (we’ll use Azure by default) deploy your first cloud resources
• Cloud Rolling Update: update and deploy your k8s yaml to create a no-downtime deployment in the cloud

Part IV: Best Practices

• Storing Secrets: we’ll discuss options we have for storing secrets to ensure they don’t end up exposed to prying eyes
• Software Architecture for the Cloud: we’ll discuss common application concerns when moving to the cloud
• Best Practices: the money shot; I’ll show you my suite of best practices for building and deploying robust containers
