Looking for the best way to learn kubernetes, given that I have plenty of years of engineering (Java, python) and a solid experience with AWS.
any format works - paid/free courses, working through articles, getting started guides, etc…
I can recommend the Udemy courses by Mumshad from kodekloud. They are focused on the cnf certifications and come with access to hands on labs.
Furthermore the kubernetes book from Nigel Poulton is nice to work through and receives regular updates.
Kubernetes the hard way is a great resource.
If you have access to some hardware, install K3s and get a LAMP stack running.
My team at SuperOrbital will be running our core Kubernetes course in August. If you are interested, feel free to reach out at https://superorbital.io/
