Where to Learn Kubernetes, Ansible and Terraform?


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.
