Overview
Practical learning for workplace transfer.
This in-depth course develops directly applicable capability in Amazon EKS Administration and Troubleshooting. It connects EKS Architecture and Cluster Provisioning, Compute and Workload Identity, and Networking, Storage, and Ingress to the decisions, controls, and activities participants need to perform in their workplace. The five-module curriculum progresses toward EKS Operations Lab, using evidence, scenarios, and work products appropriate to the subject.
Objectives
- Analyze eks architecture and cluster provisioning, including managed control plane, vpc subnets, endpoints, and security groups.
- Configure or structure compute and workload identity, including managed node groups, fargate profiles, autoscaling, and amis.
- Evaluate networking, storage, and ingress, including vpc cni addresses, prefix delegation, and network policy.
- Manage operations and failure diagnosis, including control-plane logs, cloudwatch, metrics, and container insights.
- Apply eks operations lab, including deploy a cluster workload with identity and persistent storage.
Target audience
- Professionals responsible for this subject area
- Managers, supervisors, and team leaders
- Analysts, specialists, engineers, or coordinators working with the relevant processes
- Project, implementation, assurance, or improvement team members
- Professionals preparing for broader responsibilities in this field
