Awesome course. Explanations on core concepts are really worth and meaningful with "cool" graphical illustration; i loved it. Highly recommended for learning kubernetes, even you are not planning for CKA exam. Thanks Mumshad/KodeKloud team for this wonderful course material, appreciated.

"I'd like to say very warm thank you to @Mumshad Mannambeth - your CKAD course was the best learning material in terms of k8s I've seen. I can easily say that it has helped me a lot to get on fast track to k8s understanding and use. I did some other preparations (including going through entire kubernetes.io/docs/concepts) but I wouldn't be able to achieve both CKAD and CKA without this course within such a short time so once again, THANK YOU."

"Exam nailed! @Mumshad Mannambeth you're a legend! My experience was almost entirely with docker only until taking your course so this is almost 100% because of you! Straight to the point, covers the necessary to take the exam with some additional practice. Very good course and very good teacher. Top notch!"
