Docker & Kubernetes

Master container virtualization internals and production-grade Kubernetes orchestration from kernel primitives to scale.

This course covers containerization mechanics from Linux kernel namespaces and cgroups to declarative distributed systems orchestration with Kubernetes. Students analyze OCI specifications, storage drivers, and CNI network overlays before engineering resilient multi-node clusters with GitOps and autoscaling. The curriculum bridges systems theory with hands-on production operations suitable for enterprise DevOps roles.
