Ask HN: Where to Learn Kubernetes, Ansible and Terraform?
6 points by Pooge on May 4, 2022 | hide | past | favorite | 4 comments
I'm looking for resources to learn them. Should I just go with the official documentation? I tend to prefer video format (mostly watching at higher speeds), but I was wondering if there was some resource regarded as better.


No substitute for doing it.

For kubernetes, you can use minikube and run a cluster on your own machine.

From a brief look at the docs, you could use terraform to manage your minikube cluster: https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/kubernetes...

For ansible, I'd just use a free ec2 instance or similar.

For a specific application, the php guestbook app is a good place to start, but my guess is all the tutorials are pretty good: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tutorials/


YouTube has plenty of Ansible introductions for various skill levels and preferences.

Check out Jeff Geerling’s YouTube videos and his Ansible book, which is the de facto bible.


do you have a problem you want to tackle with the tech? if not i would assume you will have a hard time


Mostly skills I want to pick up to add to my arsenal! I can see Kubernetes being useful at home because I was thinking of making a homeserver, but I'd say it's mostly curiosity as an engineer.
