    Is there a way to learn containers in a day

    Yes, containers in a day are possible – and we will show you how during 8 hours of this trainer-led workshop. This hack is made for IT professionals and developers, interested in deploying cloud-native applications. We will focus on giving attendees a hands-on experience of working with Docker, Azure Containers Registry and Kubernetes by leveraging Azure Kubernetes Service.

    You will be working in a team of up to 6 people, completing a set of challenges that will give you ready-to-apply knowledge for managing and deploying containers-based cloud applications.

    Each team will become a part of a fictional philanthropic company IT department with a mission to launch a social network that will raise awareness about good causes and help them to raise funds for various charities.

    You will be using the existing source code and deploy micro-services web application by leveraging Docker, Azure Containers Registry and Kubernetes via AKS.

    Even though you will be working with the Cloud, you will still need a laptop so please bring your own. 🙂

    Learning outcomes:
    • Understanding the basics of monitoring and maintaining containerised applications.
    • Setting up alerts and notifications for critical events.
