Configuring and Managing Kubernetes Storage and Scheduling
Running apps at scale requires the right storage and scheduling. This course will teach you how to manage Kubernetes storage and influence pod placement for efficient workloads.
What you'll learn
Modern applications rely on Kubernetes for scalability and resilience, but without the right storage and scheduling strategies, workloads can become inefficient and unreliable. In this course, Configuring and Managing Kubernetes Storage and Scheduling, you’ll learn to configure persistent storage and manage pod placement for optimized cluster performance. First, you’ll explore how Kubernetes volumes, PersistentVolumeClaims, and StorageClasses provide reliable data storage for stateful applications. Next, you’ll discover the fundamentals of pod scheduling and how to use node selectors, affinities, and taints to influence workload placement. Finally, you’ll learn how to combine storage and scheduling strategies to handle real-world scenarios and ensure your applications remain performant and stable. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Kubernetes storage and scheduling needed to confidently manage workloads in production-like environments.
