Docker & Kubernetes Mastery

Master container orchestration at scale. Write Dockerfiles, manage Pods, deployments, and Services in Kubernetes clusters.

Modern infrastructure runs on containers. This course takes you from writing your first Dockerfile to managing complex Kubernetes clusters. You will learn to containerize applications, manage multi-container setups with Docker Compose, and then graduate to orchestration. Master Kubernetes primitives: Pods, Deployments, Services, and Ingress. We cover Helm charts for package management and persistent storage concepts. Essential for DevOps engineers and backend developers scaling apps.
