Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) Exam Preparation

Kubernetes is one of the world’s most popular container orchestration tools. Established by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), the Kubernetes Administrator certification is designed to validate your skills for working with Kubernetes.

This learning path is designed to help you prepare for the CKA exam. It includes a combination of courses covering each exam domain, a series of labs to build hands-on Kubernetes experience working directly in a live cloud environment, and exams to test your knowledge along the way.

Learning Objectives

The learning path will prepare you to understand and demonstrate your knowledge in each of the general domains of the CKA exam:

Intended Audience

This learning path is intended specifically for Kubernetes cluster administrators. Anyone interested in learning how to work with Kubernetes will also benefit from this learning path.

Prerequisites

A solid understanding of containers, and Docker, in particular, will be of value. If you are not comfortable with Docker, you are encouraged to complete the Docker and Kubernetes in the Depth learning path.

This learning path uses Kubernetes running on Linux machines. You should be comfortable working with Linux shells.

The labs in the learning path use virtual machines running in public clouds. Prior experience working with virtual machines in cloud environments is beneficial but not required.
