Kubernetes Workshop by JJ & CZ

# Title

Getting started with Kubernetes is daunting. The sheer number of concepts to wrap your head around produces a steep learning curve that leaves even the most seasoned DevOp unsure he or she has accomplished the task of setting up a secure and performant cluster.

Paul and JJ are going to walk us through the use of a cluster an lead us through the first 90 minutes of a workshop. They will then leave the cluster up for 24 hours for those who would like to continue the workshop as a self study.

VMware is graciously providing the workshop environment for the first 50 attendees. This workshop environment will include all tooling (k8s cluster, kubectl, etc). As long as you can fire up a web browser, you can do the workshop. Otherwise you can follow along using your own k8s cluster ( minikube or kind should be fine).

The workshop is loosely based of https://container.training with modifications to make it even simpler for you to follow along.

For those who do not want to join the zoom I'll be restreaming just the workshop portion of the evening to https://twitch.tv/vmwaretanzu but we won't really be interacting with the chat there.
