Unravel the complexities of Kubernetes with this hands-on guide! Start with an introduction to Kubernetes architecture and components such as nodes, Minikube, and kubectl commands. Follow tutorials to set up your first clusters and pods, and then dive into more advanced concepts like DaemonSets, batch jobs, and custom resource definitions. Perform resource management, set up autoscaling, deploy applications with Helm, and more!
What's New in ASP.NET Core 9.0
In this course, you’ll learn about the modern new features in the latest version of the framework. First, you’ll learn how to install and set up ASP.NET Core 9.0 and upgrade your projects to this latest version. Next, you’ll learn about all the improvements to Blazor and UI development. Finally, you’ll learn about all the new features of the ASP.NET Core platform, such as improvements to APIs, debugging, caching, and more.
Respond to Compromised AWS Resources Lab
In this Challenge Lab, you will respond to compromised AWS resources. First, you will create a Security Group for public webservers, and then you will create a second security group for quarantining compromised servers. Next, you will launch a public EC2 webserver, and then you will simulate an unauthorized infiltration of the web server. Finally, you will respond by quarantining the instance, and then you will create a snapshot of the EBS volume of the compromised instance to capture evidence for later review.
Laravel
Learn professional Laravel development from fundamentals to advanced applications. Starting with core Laravel concepts, you'll progress through building secure APIs, e-commerce platforms, and learn essential testing and database management skills. This path combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, teaching you how to build robust, scalable applications using Laravel's powerful features.
