Build on the foundation of our Core Kubernetes workshop to bring performance and resilience to your workloads. In the Kubernetes ecosystem, HA and performance is often left as an exercise to the reader. We're here to help.
In our Kubernetes Resilience workshop, you’ll gain hands-on experience from our world-class, expert trainers. Learn the techniques for maintaining highly-available systems on Kubernetes.
Outline
Review the Kubernetes architecture, including running workloads,
proper kubectl usage, kubernetes networking, labels & annotations,
and inspecting the cluster.
Grasp the complex performance implications of the Kubernetes networking model, exploring external traffic policies, Service Endpoints, and ExternalName services.
Learn how to weather the storm using Quality of Service, Pod Priority & Preemption, and Pod disruption budgets
Learn how to tweak the scheduler for greater Pod availability and performance. Master Node affinity, Pod affinity, and Taints & Tolerations.
Explore the Horizontal & Vertical Pod Autoscalers.
Learn about the Spot Ocean tooling and how it helps manage and visualize costs as your application scales.
A student favorite!
For the final few hours of the workshop, the students compete as teams to diagnose and fix real-world production Kubernetes issues.
We break em, you fix em!

Instructors
Rob Salmond
Engineer & Lead Trainer
Serving an extended sentence in the YAML mines. Claims innocence.
Andrea Giardini
Kubernetes Trainer
Interested in unconventional ideas, people and lifestyles.
"Would be their student again, 10/10!"
"This is the best quality technical training I've ever attended."
"I'm connecting the dots on a lot of things I've had to do over the past year"
"Seriously the best course I've taken all year."
"Some of the best paced instruction I have ever seen."
"The instructors are very knowledgeable fun people :)"
Intended Audience
We recommend this course for your architects, engineers, and platform operations teams.
To get the most out of this subject, students should come prepared with an understanding of the Kubernetes fundamentals, Bash scripting, and the basics of Linux processes, users, and permissions. A good place to start is with our Core Kubernetes course.
We believe that sitting in an eight hour lecture is simply mind-numbing. Four hours of intense lecture and hands-on-labs is the perfect amount of time to ingest the information, and gives your brain the downtime it needs to absorb it.
Some of our past students think the Q&A sessions were the best part of the workshop. They give you a chance to ask more detailed questions, and dig into how Kubernetes works (or doesn't) in your unique situation.
In your living room! We're passionately 100% remote, and so is our training. Humans learn better when we're comfortable, and when we haven't had to sit in a grueling 45 minute commute.
We truly believe our workshops are the best money can buy. If you disagree, we'll happily refund the full ticket cost.
Not a problem at all! Just shoot us an email!
Why, I'm so glad you asked...
We're infrastructure experts with a reputation for delivering great work. Here’s how we're different:
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.
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.
Intensely Hands-On
That's not a typo. We don’t believe in static, podium-based training with some boring instructor talking at you.
Instead, SuperOrbital courses immerse you in an active learning environment where you can internalize the lessons through collaboration and hands-on workshops. The end result is knowledge that sticks, and a foundation for true expertise.
Thorough
We dig deep into a topic, when creating our content. We tease apart every aspect, breaking it down into its atomic parts. Then we rearrange them into an order our students can easily digest and remember. Our content goes deep, giving you a foundational understanding of how things work under the hood.
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.
Each of our workshop days consists of three hours of training and a one-hour Q&A session. This helps keep the training active and inspiring, and gives plenty of time for the knowledge to gel.
It's cliché to say it, but we truly believe our workshops are the best money can buy.
