Course Overview
CN220: Kubernetes Operations by Mirantis is an intermediate-level, two-day course designed for infrastructure and integration engineers responsible for day-to-day application workload management on Kubernetes clusters. While not directly tied to a Mirantis-specific certification, the CN220 curriculum aligns closely with real-world operational tasks required for Kubernetes administration and prepares candidates for industry-recognized credentials such as the Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) exam offered by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). This course serves roles including DevOps Engineers, Site Reliability Engineers (SREs), and Platform Engineers—positions in high demand as 65% of Kubernetes-related job postings in 2024 allowed remote work, reflecting widespread enterprise adoption of cloud-native technologies. With over 4850 Kubernetes jobs analyzed globally in 2024, Software Engineers remain the most sought-after, followed by DevOps and SRE roles, underscoring the need for practical operations training like that provided in CN220.
The course covers core Kubernetes operational technologies including RBAC implementation, application high availability, multi-tenancy configuration, network traffic routing, and Kubernetes network security. Students gain hands-on experience through lab exercises where they configure secure namespaces, implement role-based access controls, manage deployment rollouts, and set up highly available application environments using native Kubernetes objects. These labs are conducted in a live Kubernetes environment, allowing learners to use standard command-line tools such as kubectl, vim, and bash shell utilities while working with YAML manifests to define and enforce policies. A key scenario involves setting up a multi-tenant cluster with isolated workspaces and granular permissions, simulating real-world production challenges faced by operations teams managing shared infrastructure across multiple development groups.
By mastering the skills taught in CN220: Kubernetes Operations, students position themselves to pursue the CKA certification—a globally recognized credential that validates expertise in Kubernetes administration and is resold through Mirantis. Certified professionals report career advancement opportunities and increased employer confidence, with average Kubernetes-related salaries ranging from $129,573 to $188,071 in 2024, reaching up to $310,000 in top-tier roles. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning path with Guaranteed-to-Run batches, official Mirantis courseware, and optional 1-on-1 training, ensuring flexibility and mastery. Completing CN220 equips IT professionals with the operational competence needed to manage production Kubernetes environments confidently and advance into senior cloud-native engineering and platform leadership roles.
