Testimonials

What our customers have to say


“I attended an online Docker and Kubernetes workshop. The experience was great. I learned a solid base on the two technologies, that enabled me to start creating solution prototypes for Node.js applications using Rancher and Helm. It also opened the door for me to subscribe to Cloud Native Slack channels to get in touch with the K8S and Cloud Native communities. I recommend this workshop for system administrators or solution architects which are transitioning to the Containers, Containers Orchestration tools and Cloud Native solutions. I loved the passion of the instructor, the hands-on activities and the documentation material is great.”
