Enjoy an Intro Nugget on Kubernetes

CCIE General, , , ,

Enjoy this sample Nugget from the CBT Nuggets course Cisco CCIE RS Core Concepts – Evolving Technologies https://www.cbtnuggets.com/it-training/cisco-ccie-concepts-evolving-technologies This course was released in November of 2018 and covers everything you need to know to handle the Evolving Technologies questions in all CCIE Written Certification exams as well as the CCDE qualification exam. This video provides an introduction to Kubernetes – a clustering technology that is taking the world by storm. These clusters permit the deployment of containers. These containers often represent micro-services deployed in a cloud-based infrastructure. These micro-service work together to bring robust applications to end users.
