Advanced Kubernetes Networking with Calico Enterprise
Designed for SREs/DevOps, Cloud Architects, Security Architects, and Network Engineers, this course builds on our introductory training to provide students with an in-depth understanding of CNI plug-ins and Calico Enterprise networking within Kubernetes.
Upon successful completion of this course, students will leave with the ability to evaluate, install, and configure Calico Enterprise for use in an enterprise production-grade environment.
Objectives:
- Understanding of CNI
- Ability to handle Local Node and Internode Routing
- Strong Understanding of Kubernetes Policy
- Strong Understanding of Calico Enterprise Policy
- Ability to implement and trace Calico Enterprise networking in a Kubernetes cluster
- Ability to implement and test advanced Calico Enterprise policies in a Kubernetes cluster
- Ability to integrate off-cluster services into the security policy framework
