You'll learn about container management and orchestration for Kubernetes using Amazon EKS.
Contents

With Amazon EKS, you can run Kubernetes on AWS without having to install, operate, and maintain your own Kubernetes control plane. You’ll manage container images using Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) and learn how to automate application deployment. You’ll deploy applications using continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) tools. You’ll learn how to monitor and scale your environment using metrics, logging, tracing, and horizontal and vertical scaling. You’ll also manage storage for your containerized applications, configure AWS networking services to support the cluster, and learn how to secure your Amazon EKS environment.
