curriculum VS CKAD-exercises

Also check out https://www.cncf.io/certification/cka/. One of the good links in resources is the exam curriculum.

My primary skills revolve around Linux/Docker/Kubernetes, AWS, and automation tools like Gitlab CI, Jenkins, etc. Of course I've picked up a ton of ancillary skills along the way, but these are the core of what I do. So if you do go down that route look at the Kubernetes certs like the CKA, CKAD, and CKS. There are also -JP versions of each of those certs as well, which may be useful in the Japanese market. The CNCF (Cloud Native Computing Foundation) is a great organization to follow in this regard: https://www.cncf.io/certification/training/ - They have other non-Kubernetes certs as well.

Here’s the curriculum for the exam - https://github.com/cncf/curriculum/blob/master/CKAD_Curriculum_v1.23.pdf

It's not in the official CKAD syllabus either and I didn't encounter it the exam. Just my experience though. https://github.com/cncf/curriculum/blob/master/CKAD_Curriculum_v1.22.pdf

If you want some training, take a look at the Linux Foundation and Cloud Native Computing Foundation.

I currently co-lead the documentation efforts for Kubernetes & LitmusChaos, am a CNCF ambassador, have spoken at global events, and have even co-led the creation & review of the KCNA certification. I intend to continue and plan on writing/speaking more about cloud native & open source. My target is to get myself CKA & CKAD certified by Q1, 2022 & continue exploring other avenues of the projects I can contribute to.

I'm preparing for the CKAD exam. I am following the https://github.com/cncf/curriculum/blob/master/CKAD_Curriculum_V1.21.pdf curriculum for my preparation. There is however another one https://github.com/cncf/curriculum/blob/master/CKAD-2021_Curriculum_Coming_Q3_2021.pdf.

Practical exercises https://github.com/dgkanatsios/CKAD-exercises nice list of things you can do on your own, but you need to setup local environment. Minikube seems to be easiest. Note: don’t fall into ‘fancy’ solutions, there are multiple ways of doing something in kubectl/bash/yaml, but you should stick to way you feel comfortable with.

I took the LFS259 class and have been going through these exercises https://github.com/dgkanatsios/CKAD-exercises

https://github.com/dgkanatsios/CKAD-exercises but I did half of them in the https://killercoda.com/kimwuestkamp/scenario/cks-cka-ckad-remote-desktop just so I could get used to the exam environment

You saved my day today. On https://github.com/dgkanatsios/CKAD-exercises I spin pods and deploys and all in an eye-blink, and on killer.sh I didn't know how to start at each question.

Went thru all these exercises twice with my personal ubuntu desktop server: https://github.com/dgkanatsios/CKAD-exercises
