Kubernetes Fundamentals - Beginner
A beginner course on Kubernetes: run your first containers as Pods, give them stable addresses with Services and NGINX Ingress, manage applications at scale with Deployments and StatefulSets, and persist data and configuration with PersistentVolumes, Claims, ConfigMaps and Secrets — all hands-on with kubectl against a real running cluster.

Course Contents
3 Hours 8 Minutes
Introduces what Kubernetes is and how a cluster is organized, then teaches Containers and Pods — the smallest deployable unit — including manifest anatomy, environment variables, resource limits, and diagnosing the classic pod failure states.
Teaches how Kubernetes gives pods stable network addresses with Services, how cluster DNS resolves them, and how Ingress rules with the NGINX controller route external HTTP traffic by host and path.
Shows how to run applications at scale with Deployments — self-healing replicas, rolling updates, scaling, and rollbacks — and when StatefulSets are needed for stable identities and ordered operations.
Explains how pods get persistent data through Volumes, PersistentVolumes, PersistentVolumeClaims and dynamic provisioning, then how to inject configuration and sensitive values with ConfigMaps and Secrets.
