Video description

In this Introduction to CoreOS training course, expert author Ross Kukulinski will teach you how to deploy, monitor, and scale containerized applications. This course is designed for users that are already familiar with running applications with containerization technologies.

You will start by learning the basics of CoreOS, then jump into learning about CoreOS subsystems. From there, Ross will teach you how to launch a development CoreOS cluster, including how to install dependencies, boot your first cluster, and troubleshoot CoreOS services. This video tutorial also covers how to deploy a database-backed web application. Finally, you will learn advanced topics, including firewalls, EC2 security groups, and building on CoreOS.

Once you have completed this computer based training course, you will have learned how to successfully deploy, monitor, and scale containerized applications. Working files are included, allowing you to follow along with the author throughout the lessons.
