New course 2024 Edition – OCI Container Engine for Kubernetes deployed with Terraform

The landscape of cloud technology changes swiftly, highlighting the need for regular course updates to stay current. This has led me to introduce the latest edition of my course, focused on deploying OCI Container Engine for Kubernetes using Terraform (2024 Edition). The current edition, like its predecessors, is structured into two main chapters covering OKE features and OKE deployments, ensuring learners receive the most up-to-date insights and practices.

My course is meticulously structured into comprehensive lessons to provide a holistic understanding of OKE and its deployment capabilities. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn:

• Lesson 1: Creating OKE Basic Cluster  – discover the setup of a Basic OKE Cluster that supports all essential Kubernetes features, minus the advanced functionalities found in enhanced clusters.
• Lesson 2: Creating OKE Enhanced Cluster  – learn to configure an Enhanced OKE Cluster, incorporating advanced features like virtual nodes and autoscaling for higher reliability and performance.
• Lesson 3: Creating OKE Enhanced Cluster with OKE Add-Ons  -delve into advanced cluster setup with OKE Add-Ons, focusing on robust, scalable, and efficient Kubernetes environments.
• Lesson 4: Creating OKE Enhanced Cluster with Virtual NodePool -explore the setup of an OKE Enhanced Cluster using Virtual NodePools for on-demand scalability and efficient resource management.
• Lesson 5: Creating OKE Enhanced Cluster with Autoscaler OKE Add-on -harness the power of automatic scaling in your OKE deployments with a detailed tutorial on using the Autoscaler as an OKE Add-on.
• Lesson 6: Creating OKE Cluster with OCI LoadBalancer as Kubernetes Service – integrate robust load balancing capabilities within your Kubernetes deployments using OCI Load Balancer as a Kubernetes Service.
• Lesson 7: Creating OKE Cluster with OCI Block Volume as Kubernetes PVC – enhance your Kubernetes deployments with durable and scalable storage solutions, leveraging OCI Block Volumes for persistent storage needs.
• Lesson 8: Creating OKE Cluster with OCI File Storage Service as Kubernetes PVC – incorporate OCI File Storage Service into your Kubernetes deployments, offering a scalable, shared storage solution that supports concurrent access needs.
• Lesson 9: Creating OKE Cluster with image taken from OCI Registry – leverage the OCI Registry for storing and managing your Docker images, configuring your OKE cluster to pull application images directly from OCIR.

By the end of this course, you will not only master the technical aspects of OKE and Terraform but also acquire the strategic mindset needed to make informed decisions regarding containerization strategies in the cloud. This comprehensive guidance is your pathway to effectively setting up, managing, and optimizing OKE in your everyday work.
