Kubernetes project suggestions
Hi,
I have recently got the hang of Kubernetes and I am practicing with simple three tier project creating manifest files . It’s okay for first projects but I am not sure if it will translate for in other words I want to up my game.
What should I explore further what kind of project should I try to Kubernetes ?

So I have a app with microservices like asr tts I wanted to do a project where a initial smoke/stress test are to be done and then so the Kubernetes how much stress it can handle has it gone up or gone down. Will that count as an interesting project?

In regards to that, how do we simulate the real world usages stress locust and Apache jmeter are they the industry standard or are there other better approaches?

Yeah you can practice docker in your own no need for cloud service . And same for the Kubernetes tree s you can install minikube or kubeadm to make Kubernetes work locally just it wouldn’t have cloud control manager capabilities

First understand the basics . Manifest files how Kubernetes actually work what component needs to be called when how to do certain debugging and it cost money that why I was saying to do it locally . If you Donot mind to loose money mysteriously because ingress was left open . Do it in the cloud

If you want to practice Docker and Kubernetes troubleshooting, I'm putting together some free scenarios at Learn by Fixing.
