Learn how to use Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS) to deploy enterprise-scale Kubernetes clusters.
Kubernetes fans rejoice. You can now use this popular container orchestration tool with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to deploy enterprise-scale Kubernetes clustersâwithout the headaches of managing multiple masters. This course teaches you the ins and outs of Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS), including understanding the deployment model and creating the needed Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles and policies.
