Course Overview

CN212: Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (MKE) is an intermediate-level course by Mirantis designed for system operators, administrators, and DevOps engineers responsible for managing enterprise-scale containerized environments. This intensive one-day training prepares professionals for the operational challenges of deploying and maintaining Mirantis Kubernetes Engine, a platform built to secure and streamline Kubernetes and Swarm cluster management across hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructures. While no formal certification exam is directly tied to CN212, it aligns with advanced operational competencies recognized in cloud-native roles and supports preparation for broader industry credentials like the Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA). With major enterprises such as IBM, Microsoft, and Société Générale leveraging MKE in production, demand for skilled administrators remains strong—Mirantis reports deployments across hundreds of enterprise customers, including a third of the Fortune 100.

The course delivers hands-on experience with core components of the Mirantis Kubernetes Engine, including MKE architecture, RBAC systems, PKI and API authentication, Interlock for Swarm, and Istio for Kubernetes. Students work within a Strigo-powered lab environment to install MKE via Launchpad for high availability, configure L7 networking features such as sticky sessions and canary deployments, and implement role-based access controls across both orchestrators. A key practical component involves generating and analyzing MKE support dumps, enabling learners to extract critical diagnostics, correlate system symptoms with underlying components, and perform recovery operations such as restoring from backups or rebuilding failed MKE managers. One real-world scenario includes simulating a disaster recovery event where participants must restore a corrupted MKE cluster using backup artifacts and audit logs.

By mastering MKE operations through CN212, attendees gain skills directly applicable to securing and scaling mission-critical container platforms, positioning them for roles such as Cloud Infrastructure Engineer or Container Platform Administrator. Professionals with MKE expertise often see accelerated career growth, with cloud-native engineering roles commanding median salaries between $130,000 and $160,000 in North America. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning path with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling, official Mirantis courseware, and access to expert instructors for personalized guidance. Completing CN212 equips IT professionals to lead enterprise Kubernetes adoption, improve deployment velocity, and ensure resilient, auditable cluster operations in regulated and large-scale environments.
