Containers & Kubernetes Basics

One of the most in-demand modern deployment skills. Participants learn what containers are and why they matter, get hands-on with Docker fundamentals, understand Kubernetes architecture, and deploy a sample app to a cluster, the same pattern used in production everywhere.

Aimed at developers, sysadmins and platform staff who need to work with containers rather than only read about them. The course starts with the problem containers solve, then moves through images, registries, Dockerfiles and container lifecycle before introducing Kubernetes. Kubernetes coverage stays at the level that matters for getting an application running and keeping it running: pods, deployments, services, config and secrets, scaling, and reading logs and events when something will not start. The session is deliberately honest about complexity, including when a managed service or a simpler platform is the better answer than running a cluster yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Containers & Kubernetes Basics runs for 2 days, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. It is delivered as an in-house closed group session, so the schedule can be adjusted to fit your team's working hours.

Yes. Delivery options are physical, online, hybrid, e-learning. In-house sessions run at your premises anywhere in Malaysia, online sessions run live over video conference, and hybrid combines both for teams split across sites.

Orbix runs this as its own HRD Corp claimable workshop with an Orbix certificate. Participants can also pursue CNCF CKA/CKAD certifications separately. Each certificate carries a certificate number that can be checked at orbixtech.my/certificate-verify.

Level: Intermediate. The session is built around worked examples and group exercises rather than theory, so participants apply the material to their own organisation during the session.

Yes. This course is also available through the Orbix LMS and e-learning platform, where participants work through the material on their own schedule and device rather than attending one fixed session. A knowledge assessment and certificate on completion work the same way as the instructor-led session.

Minimum 2 participants for an in-house or live online session. With only 1 participant, we deliver it as a one-to-one online session instead.

Yes. Many clients pair this course with our one-day team building and high-performing teams programme on the same engagement, so the budget and the day cover both.

Yes. Participants can follow up by email with questions that come up while applying what they learned, and we will point you to the right template, checklist or framework reference even after the session is over.
