About the Course

Welcome to the Getting Started with Google Kubernetes Engine course. If you're interested in Kubernetes, a software layer that sits between your applications and your hardware infrastructure, then you’re in the right place! Google Kubernetes Engine brings you Kubernetes as a managed service on Google Cloud. The goal of this course is to introduce the basics of Google Kubernetes Engine, or GKE, as it’s commonly referred to, and how to get applications containerized and running in Google Cloud. The course starts with a basic introduction to Google Cloud, and is then followed by an overview of containers and Kubernetes, Kubernetes architecture, and Kubernetes operations....

I already learnt GKE from Qwiklabs courses. But there are new things that I learnt now, like Architecture of K8s, Edge presence of GCP (GKE), Still there are things that can be taught about Anthos.

O curso vai direto ao ponto, as aulas são curtas o que torna o curso mais interessante e nada cansativo, além da da explicação em vídeo é possível também colocar em prática o que o instrutor fala no video com os labs que são disponibilizados, ótimo curso e recomendo ele a todos que tenham interesse nos serviços do gcloud.

This course does require some prior knowledge of vi (or text editor via Command Line) in order to make the Lab sessions (Google Cloud Console) smoother. Other than this gripe, the presentation and pacing are fine for introductory material for using the Google Kubernetes Engine (formerly, Google Cloud).

The lab work is very useful for me. I am glad to use Google Cloud Platform first time, and the lab work went well. I had already some experiences on docker, k8s, etc, which might help my lab work. I am now quite confident to use Google Cloud services in future if there is such project at work.

this course took me through all of the fundementals neccessary to get a good understanding of the product. im sure a lot of the early stuff was necessary even though id seen it before in other courses, but id definitely recommend it for hands on experience of google cloud and Kubernetes

Fantastic crash-course that crams a vast amount of information into a small learning window. The slides can be difficult to understand, but the labs are excellent for solidifying knowledge as they are provisioned with long time periods to slowly absorb the online descriptions.

This is an amazing course to have hands on experience with Kubernetes and also get an understanding of how it can be utilized for your own apps. Labs are designed in such a way that by the end of the course, you tend to remember the commands and use them almost unconsciously.

A comprehensive course for starters that is rich in hands-on exercises. An advanced course is, however, a required next-step. Concepts like StatefulSets, ConfigMaps, PersistentVolumeClaims are integral parts of many modern applications, but are not covered in this course.

It's a great course on kubernetes. It described most of the features of containerizing applications on google cloud using Kubernetes orchestration mechanism. Also it describes in depth about how to build CI/CD pipelines for Kubernetes deployments on Jenkins and Spinnaker.

This course was really helpful with its simple yet striking videos and awesome lab wherein all the magic happens. Come and get your hands dirty and go with an exhilarating feeling.

Last but no the least, thank you Google and Coursera for bringing the course to the masses.

I was really glad to take this course.

Completing labs I managed to understand what Google Kubernetes Engine is. It's really useful to deep into cloud environment by using services just to understand how they work together.

By the way, support team are awesome!

Good as basic intro for newbies (as me)

Just to understand: this is very-very beginning.

You'll met some important concepts and no valuable practical skills, although there are three 1hr long labs with real working Google Cloud Engine infrastructure

Thanks for your kindness guide, I could progress totally with our teammates. These kind of online guide can be learned by un-majored colleagues such as me. Thanks again and I would really want to register next time at this kind of education.

This course is very insightful and covers most of what any developer would need to get started with k8s. There is just so much to do learn, but what is covered in the course should be sufficient as introductory to Google Kubernetes Engine

If you want to understand the basic workflow as to how the CI/CD works then refer to this course.

This could clear your concept by significant margin as it did to me. It helped me a lot and hope the same experience for others as well.

I have been using openshift for quite some time and I am familiar with Kubernetes. I think this course is the right one for someone to get started onto Kubernetes and be able to build upon the knowledge to take up advanced topics.

This is the most critical course among the five in this path. I like the explanation of how and why behind the commands and architecture. While most of the other online videos never really manage to explain it in a clear way.

Good introductory in getting started with Google Kubernetes Engine. Everything went smooth, and it showed the basic possibilities.

Perhaps adding additional resources on more complex situations might be be an extra bonus.

Contents are good to get basic understanding of Kubernetes Engine and various advantages of it. The deployment models exercise is too good to grasp and visualize what the various models are and internals in brief.

I am new to containers and i've found Kubernetes to be a little hard for me to understand. But the course and professors were great and i could understand many things about containers and continuous integration.

Very good course, a lot of details to keep / remember for later use. Very good explanations during the sessions as well as good labs. It wasn't easy, many things to understand, training etc. Recommended course.

Excellent overview. I would certainly recommend reading beforehand a bit about Jenkins and Kubernetes, but this course is certainly a great beginner course. Glad I took it and had the time to complete it.

It was good experience for me, I start Docker and Kubernetes and GCP. It was so simple and easy, because I just was followed the comments ;). But I think my first time is very good with coursera.

It was so nice experience to learn Kubernetes. Resource and Lab works are very helpful to gain knowledge. I am looking forward to learn more about Kubernetes in advance level. Thank you!
