Course Overview
Learn how to install, configure, and use NetApp® Astra Trident to manage Kubernetes with NetApp ONTAP® based storage systems. Deploy Astra Trident by using the Trident operator and 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. Written for Kubernetes v1.29, NetApp Trident 24.10, and NetApp Trident Protect 24.10.1, this course includes appendixes on Kubernetes certifications, operator design patterns to extend Kubernetes, and a GitOps introduction.
