Too old, many tools discussed here are old and deprecated in 2025

Lot of good information in this lecture, but it seemed more rushed than the basics. Overall I still really liked this course and will keep an eye out for more from this lecturer.

Really good content, but most of the demos were very difficult to get working in my own environment. Sometimes critical steps were omitted, and other times out-of-date versions were used in the demos. If you intend to only watch the videos to understand the various aspects of Kubernetes, but you don't plan to try to implement them yourself, this is an excellent course.

All the content in this course is very relevant, but in 2019 looks like this one here needs some revamping, but still, very useful for people who's working with Kubernetes on a daily basis.
