Kubernetes

Practice setup

Use Minikube to spin up a local Kubernetes cluster for hands-on drills.

Troubleshooting scenarios

Break things intentionally by killing pods or spiking CPU usage to simulate failures.

Fix quickly:

kubectl get pods
kubectl describe pod <pod-name>
kubectl get pod <pod-name> -o yaml
kubectl apply -f <config.yaml>

Monitoring Tools

Brush up on Prometheus and Grafana. Simulate alerts by creating high-load scenarios and tuning dashboards.
