This is a workshop which introduces basic Kubernetes concepts - how to use it, why it's important, and where to get more information afterwards. This workshop is designed to be self-running, and contains practical and conceptual information inside the repository.
If you haven't done the Docker workshop yet, you can go through it here.
We can run the workshop with GKE (Google Kubernetes Engine), as part of Google Cloud. Google Cloud is one of the big three platform providers (along with AWS and Azure) that serve a lot of the industry - and signup is simple. It's also free, as long as we clean up later.
Instructions are in this link. This is the best way to go!
After you've setup an environment with Docker and Kubernetes, you're going to need some files from this repository for parts of this workshop. Make sure you clone the workshop in your Google Web Console:
git clone https://github.com/DevOps-Girls/kubernetes-101.git
cd kubernetes-101

Part 0: Kubernetes Concepts. In this part, we'll review what Kubernetes is and why companies use it.
-
Part 1: Kubernetes Basics, and the Command Line. In this part, we'll go through the Kubernetes command line, and make our way into creating our first objects.
-
Part 2: Deployments and Services. In this section, we'll go through how to make our pods available to the world, and how we can update them at scale.
-
Part 3: Labels. In this section, we stitch everything together.
After the workshop, simply remove the cluster by clicking on the bin button on the cluster list page.
