About this course
Kubernetes Hands-On - Deploy Microservices to the AWS Cloud is a Udemy course that teaches you to deploy, manage and monitor a live Kubernetes cluster. Richard Chesterwood leads the class.
You learn to deploy containers to a Kubernetes cluster and run Kubernetes in AWS using either EKS or Kops. The course covers monitoring a live cluster with Prometheus and Grafana, and analysing system-wide logs using the ELK Stack (ElasticSearch, Kibana). You also handle alerts by notifying Slack channels, understand how Requests and Limits work in Kubernetes, and use Horizontal Pod Autoscaling. The final module shows how to configure Ingress control on a live deployment.
By the end you can deploy a microservice architecture to AWS, monitor its health with standard tools, and control traffic into the cluster. The course does not cover writing Kubernetes controllers from scratch, managing multi-cluster setups, or deep security hardening; learners seeking those topics may prefer the CKAD or CKS alternatives listed on the hub.
This course is priced at ₹639 and runs for 29 hours at All Levels. It is taught in English and includes a certificate on completion.
