VSHN.timer #120: Time To Learn

Welcome to another VSHN.timer! Every Monday, 5 links related to Kubernetes, OpenShift, CI / CD, and DevOps; all stuff coming out of our own chat system, making us think, laugh, or simply work better.

This week we’re going to talk about resources to learn something new every day, or to keep our knowledge fresh and updated.

1. The Linux Foundation’s Cyber Monday 2021 promotion ends today (December 6th, 2021) at 23:59 UTC. Lots of incredible discounts (up to 65%!) in bootcamps, certifications, courses, and bundles thereof. Don’t miss it!

2. Are you using Kyverno, the Kubernetes native policy engine? We are, and we couldn’t be happier to learn that Nirmata (the company behind Kyverno) just launched the Kyverno Fundamentals Certification.

4. Have you read Puppet’s State of DevOps Report 2021? Well, if you’re looking for a good TL;DR summary, here’s one for you by the kind folks of Weaveworks.

5. Kustomize is a great way to DRY. But it can be a bit hard to remember all of its features and possibilities. Say no more… Oleg Sucharevich has just published the Kustomize Cheat Sheet you were looking for. (Pssst: he also published one for Linkerd and another for KIND!)

6. BONUS ITEM: If you’re new to Kubernetes or Rancher, why not join us in our upcoming webinar „Introduction to Kubernetes and Rancher“ jointly offered with our friends of SUSE? Happening next week, on Tuesday, December 14th, at 16:00 CET on Zoom. And it’s free!
