Outline
Everything you need to know to deploy your production applications to Kubernetes.
"This is the best quality technical training I've ever attended."
Kubernetes provides the API. It's up to you to use it.
Kubernetes provides a massively useful idempotent, declarative and reliable API. It unlocks an incredible amount of developer productivity and an entire industry of tools have been built to help. But like any new industry, the value is drowned in a sea of complexity, ineffectiveness, and vendor lock-in.
We explain the value of GitOps, help you understand the landscape of tools, and show you how to put them to use.

This workshop is delivered over four days. Each day is scheduled from 12pm to 5pm ET (9am to 2pm PT) with an hour break in the middle — 16 hours in total. We try to reserve an hour at the end of each session for open Q&A. Attendance for this course is limited to up to 28 students.

Intended Audience
We recommend this course for your advanced platform operations teams and for those looking to extend the platform with CI/CD pipelines.
To get the most out of this subject, students should come prepared with an understanding of Bash scripting and the Kubernetes fundamentals. A good place to start is with our Core Kubernetes workshop.
We're experts with a reputation for delivering great work. Here’s how we're different:
Intensely Hands-On
Our students spend more than 50% of their time in hands-on labs. We don’t believe in static, podium-based training with some boring instructor talking at you.
Instead, we immerse you in an active learning environment where you can internalize the lessons through collaboration and hands-on labs. This is the path to knowledge that sticks, and a foundation for true expertise.
Collaborative & Fun
People learn best when they're engaged and having fun. We strongly encourage interruptions, stupid questions, and side-quests.
This is also why we cap off each day with an open Q&A session. This is where we really get to dig into each team's unique challenges, often through live-coding sessions.
Thorough
Our content goes deep, giving you a foundational understanding of how things work under the hood. We tease apart every topic, breaking it down into its atomic parts. Then we rearrange them into an order our students can easily digest and remember.
Unbiased
We believe in cloud native solutions, but we aren't beholden to any vendor. Every situation is unique, and every tool has flaws. We help you understand how the technologies work together to solve your problems. We guide you away from the tools that are hype, and toward those that have proven their worth.
Battle Hardened
We don't just teach: we do. We've wrestled with Kubernetes, Terraform, Istio, Docker and all of the others in real production situations. We've used them in anger. We know where the tools fall down and what the documentation hides.
Remote first
The days of hours wasted commuting to work are coming to an end, and good riddance. SuperOrbital has always been a passionately remote-first company, and we bring that to our training. Why travel out of town to sit in a hot, crowded, uncomfortable room for days at a time? Our workshops are taken from the comfort of your own home, and at a schedule that encourages deep learning.
Engaging with us to provide a workshop for your team is easy. Reach out to get started.
We'll schedule a time to meet, discuss your needs, your team's experience level, and how we can help.
Each workshop day consists of four hours of lecture, labs, and open Q&A. This helps keep the training active and inspiring, and gives plenty of time for the knowledge to gel.
We follow up afterward to ensure the workshop exceeded your expectations, and to help with whatever new hurdles your team may be facing.
