Objectives:

The workshop ST294 Kubernetes NetApp™ Trident and Trident Protect enables you to:

Describe Kubernetes storage concepts
Explain how Trident makes managing persistent storage easier, and install Trident in a Kubernetes cluster
Configure back ends, storage classes, and persistent volumes to use storage that Trident manages
Use Trident to manage common scenarios
Install and use Trident Protect to protect Kubernetes applications
Protect across clusters by cloning and mirroring applications
Monitor Trident by using Prometheus and Grafana
Investigate security options to ensure a secure Kubernetes environment

Target audience:

The training ST294 Kubernetes NetApp™ Trident and Trident Protect is targeted at:

System Administrators
Architects
Integration Engineers

Prerequisites:

For successful participation in the course ST294 Kubernetes NetApp™ Trident and Trident Protect basic Linux administration skills are required.

Description:

In the workshop ST294 Kubernetes NetApp™ Trident and Trident Protect you will learn how to install, configure, and use NetApp™ Trident to manage Kubernetes with NetApp™ ONTAP based storage systems. Deploy NetApp™ Trident by using the Trident operator and then use the tridentctl and kubectl methods to manage configurations. Configure NFS-backed, iSCSI-backed, NAS economy-backed, and NVMe-over-TCP (NVMe/TCP) backed storage. Manage Snapshot copies, expand volumes, and import non-NetApp™ Trident volumes to become managed volumes. Install and configure Trident Protect to protect Kubernetes applications by using snapshots and backups. Restore snapshots and backups in place and to new namespaces. Finally, protect applications across clusters by using cloning and asynchronous SnapMirror.
