Virtual Classroom
Getting Started with Google Kubernetes Engine
2nd May, 2025 • 9.00am-5.00pm BST
Join Jellyfish & Google for a free-of-charge, one-day, virtual, instructor-led training session, to help you start your learning and certification journey on Google Cloud.
Through a combination of presentations, demos, and hands-on labs, we’ll show you how to get started with Google Kubernetes Engine, covering everything from understanding container basics through to deploying applications.
The session will start with an introduction to containers, Docker, and the Google Container Registry. You’ll learn how to containerise workloads in Docker containers, deploy them to Kubernetes clusters provided by Google Kubernetes Engine, and scale those workloads to handle increased traffic. We’ll also cover how to continuously deploy new code in a Kubernetes cluster to provide application updates.
Due to the nature and content of this course, all delegates are requested to stay engaged and participate fully in the virtual classroom. This course contains exercises to complete within Qwiklabs, and all delegates will be required to complete these exercises as part of the course.
