In this cloud native 5-day bootcamp, you will quickly learn the core skills you need to develop high performance, secure containerized applications and orchestrate them on Kubernetes before deep diving into advanced techniques for streamlining the container development process, instrumenting containers for production systems, and building fully containerized continuous integration pipelines. This bundle is meant to accelerate the containerization journey for developers and devops teams, by helping them take full advantage of all the opportunities containerization offers.
