Hi! I manage Kubernetes Academy. We are not affiliated with the CKA Exam, and have no expectation for people to take it. Our team has received questions on how to best prepare for the exam, so we created a prep course. No strings attached.
- webwanderings 7y agoI don't like to downplay such efforts (education in particular) but as a really big organization, who is putting its first foot out of the K8s door, this is a really lackluster approach. You basically have video lectures at this "academy". Not sure if you have noticed the scene out there but one can learn a whole lot more by reading and practicing on site like Katacoda then they would spending the time watching lectures on this site. In any case, VMware is a behemoth when it comes to VMs, and K8s is a match made in heaven for you (no big deal if you came late to the party, you'll be able to catch up better than anyone else - so goes the logic of course). In my opinion, if you are honestly looking to educate, and it is not just a marketing, then look into delivering the education that is better than anyone else.
- apple4ever 7y agoI agree, but this seems like the initial offering. As someone who just started working at a company that is converting from VMware to Kubernetes but who has zero experience with it and only a little with Docker, this seems like a good start. Of course I have about 20 other tabs in my browser for learning.
- webwanderings 7y agoThere's really no conversion from VMware to Kubernetes. You need VMs for K8s. Unless you're entirely not going to use VMware for your VMs; you will need virtual machines to run your K8s cluster.
