Helm Intro

Course Description

This course deals with Helm, the Kubernetes Package Manager. Helm simplifies the deployment and management of applications on Kubernetes by packaging them into charts — collections of pre-configured Kubernetes resources. Students will learn to install and use Helm, work with public and private chart repositories, create and customise charts, write templates with values and pipelines, and extend Helm with plugins.

Target Audience

System administrators, developers and DevOps engineers who deploy and manage applications on Kubernetes and want to leverage Helm for repeatable, version-controlled releases.

Prerequisites

Proficiency with the Linux CLI. A broad understanding of Linux system administration. Basic familiarity with Kubernetes (e.g. KBS-103 or equivalent experience) is recommended.
