NetApp Using Astra Trident with Kubernetes Training in Onitsha

In this course, you learn how to install, configure, and use NetApp® Astra Trident™ to manage Kubernetes with NetApp ONTAP® storage. You deploy Astra Trident by using the Trident operator and use the tridentctl and kubectl methods of managing configurations. You configure NFS-backed and iSCSI-backed storage by using Astra Trident and manage Snapshot™ copies, expand volumes, and import non-Astra Trident volumes to become managed volumes. You deploy Astra Trident in a multiple container storage interface (CSI) environment. Written for Kubernetes v1.23.0 and Astra Trident 22.01, this course includes an appendix on how to monitor Astra Trident.

Kubernetes Administration knowledge/experience is required in addition to the 3 day course below.
