Ultimate EKS Bootcamp by School of Devops

Master Amazon EKS: From Fundamentals to Advanced Kubernetes Scaling & Monitoring

This comprehensive course empowers DevOps Engineers, Cloud Architects, and Kubernetes practitioners to confidently deploy and manage production workloads on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). Forget endless theory – we take a practical, lab-driven approach to get you hands-on quickly.

What You'll Achieve:

• EKS Cluster Setup & Configuration: Learn to build and configure robust Amazon EKS clusters from the ground up.
• Application Deployment: Deploy your applications to EKS using kubectl and Kubernetes manifests.
• Networking with ALB Ingress: Configure AWS ALB Ingress Controller for seamless external access to your applications.
• Persistent Storage: Implement persistent storage using EBS volumes for stateful applications.
• Secure Access with IRSA: Secure your workloads using IAM Roles for Service Accounts (IRSA), ensuring granular access control.

Advanced Scaling Strategies:

• EKS Cluster Autoscaler: Automate node scaling based on cluster needs.
• Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA): Automatically scale the number of pods based on CPU utilization and other metrics.
• Vertical Pod Autoscaler (VPA): Dynamically adjust CPU and memory requests for pods.
• Karpenter: Explore Karpenter for advanced, just-in-time node provisioning.
• KEDA (Kubernetes Event-Driven Autoscaling): Implement event-driven autoscaling for dynamic scaling based on events from various sources.

EKS Observability & Optimization:

• Logging: Implement effective logging strategies for your EKS clusters.
• Metrics: Collect and analyze key performance metrics.
• Dashboards: Create insightful dashboards using Prometheus, Grafana, and CloudWatch to monitor cluster health and performance.
• Cost Optimization: Learn techniques to optimize cost and performance for your Kubernetes workloads on AWS.
• Troubleshooting: Develop skills to quickly identify and resolve issues within your EKS environment.

This bootcamp provides a production-ready EKS skillset, enabling you to build, scale, and monitor Kubernetes workloads on AWS with confidence. Gain the expertise to manage complex deployments and ensure the reliability and efficiency of your applications.
