In case you need a lab for introducing microservices & Kubernetes in a Linux+ or Cloud+ course

Outside of academia, I kube the netes as an SRE for 2 different companies in Waterloo, Canada.
Kubernetes isn't easy to explore, so I did up a quick blog with something that students respond very well to (I have steps for both Windows & macOS hosts in there):

Also, if you want to skip Section 1 on building a custom Docker image and pushing it to Docker Hub, you can use the image I made in that section throughout the remainder (jasoneckert/webapp on Docker Hub). While this webapp container is an ARM64-only container I made on an M1 Mac, it will actually run fine on an x64 Windows system that has Docker Desktop installed (because Docker Desktop also installs a Qemu layer when it integrates with WSL2). In other words, you can run ARM64 containers on x64 Windows systems without any issues or modifications provided that Docker Desktop is installed :)

If anyone wants to watch me walk through parts of this quickstart with the Kitchener Waterloo Linux User's Group, you can find the video at the link below (paste the link into your browser since it seems to preview the first video when I paste the full link here):

The PPT with some MS Paint diagrams I made are also on the main page: https://kwlug.org/node/1272
