In this course, we'll build a production-ready Kubernetes cluster with Talos Linux from the ground up. Throughout this journey, we will cover the following topics:

– Introduction to Talos Linux:
... - Immutable infrastructure concepts
... - API-driven operating system management
... - Security benefits of Talos Linux
– Talos Architecture and Components:
... - init process, services
... - read-only filesystem
... - talos extensions
... - Talos API and talosctl CLI
– Cluster Installation and Configuration:
... - Creating Machine Configurations
... - Kubernetes apiserver VirtualIP with talos
... - Bootstrap process and Control Plane setup
... - Adding and managing Worker Nodes
– Cluster day-2 operations:
... - Upgrading Talos linux
... - Upgrading Kubernetes
... - Extending a cluster with new nodes
... - Using talhelper for simpler operations
– Talos internals deep-dive:
... - filesystem structure, advanced talosctl commands
... - debugging session on talos
... - talos certificate and mTLS api endpoint
– Storage/Disk Management:
... - Disk layout (partitions)
... - User Volumes
... - Disk Encryption
... - backup and disaster recovery
– Installing core Kubernetes workloads:
... - CNI (Cilium)
... - CSI (Longhorn)
... - Load Balancer (with Cilium L2 announcement)
... - Ingress controller configuration
... - Cluster observability with Prometheus-compatible stack

You will not only get to know these concepts, but also implement them in practice.

Disclaimer: The actual course content may vary from the above, depending on the trainer, implementation, duration and constellation of participants.

Whether we call it training, course, workshop or seminar, we want to pick up participants at their point and equip them with the necessary practical knowledge so that they can apply the technology directly after the training and deepen it independently.
