This instructor-led live training, offered in Nigeria (either online or onsite), targets Kubernetes practitioners aiming to prepare for the CKS exam.

By the end of the program, participants will understand how to secure Kubernetes environments and container-based applications throughout the application life cycle, covering build, deployment, and runtime stages.

This 7-day programme provides a comprehensive, hands-on journey into designing, deploying, and operating cloud-native applications using modern DevOps practices.

Participants will explore how to design scalable microservices architectures, optimise container environments, and manage production workloads using Kubernetes. The course covers advanced deployment strategies, GitOps-based automation, and observability practices to ensure system reliability and performance.

A strong focus is placed on real-world operational challenges, including incident response, failure simulation, and root cause analysis. The programme concludes with the use of AI-powered tools to support troubleshooting and accelerate operational decision-making.

By the end of the training, participants will have a clear understanding of how to build, deploy, monitor, and maintain resilient distributed systems in a Kubernetes-based environment.

Learn the fundamentals of containers, Kubernetes and OpenShift in a practical, hands-on training designed for developers, DevOps engineers and IT professionals. Participants will learn how to build containerized applications, deploy workloads, manage Kubernetes resources and use OpenShift to streamline modern application delivery in cloud and hybrid environments.

Discover how to build, deploy, and administer containerized environments using Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift. This five-day, hands-on training covers container images, Kubernetes workloads, cluster networking, storage, security, monitoring, and practical OpenShift administration. Participants will acquire the necessary skills to operate modern container platforms and troubleshoot applications across both development and production settings.

In this instructor-led, live training in Nigeria (onsite or remote), participants will learn how to create and manage Docker containers, then deploy a sample application inside a container. Participants will also learn how to automate, scale, and manage their containerized applications within a Kubernetes cluster. Finally, the training goes on to more advanced topics, walking participants through the process of securing, scaling and monitoring a Kubernetes cluster.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Set up and run a Docker container.
• Deploy a containerized server and web application.
• Build and manage Docker images.
• Set up a Docker and Kubernetes cluster.
• Use Kubernetes to deploy and manage a clustered web application.
• Secure, scale and monitor a Kubernetes cluster.

Training Objectives: Acquire theoretical and practical skills in Docker and Kubernetes.
