nice course destroyed by missing instructions for final review requirements

The final project is with bugs so it is hard to complete.

ibm cloud sucks

very basic

The IBM cloud account creation did not work. The support had to do it manually. The outcome was an account, which was not authorised to create a namespace, which was one of the first instructions in a lab. I hope support will fix this.

EDIT: Support did not fix the account, they created the namespace manually and got back to me, of course the next step failed immediately as I was no able to create a Natural Language Understandin serive required for the final exam. A staff member in the discussion forum replied and claimed I could use a pay-as-you-go account even though a working trial account was part of the course I am paying for. This is literally the worst customer experience I ever whitnessed.

The course requires you to create a free account from cloud.ibm.com but due to a change in IBM policy, you can't do that anymore. You need to enter your credit card and create a non-free account.

Anyway, I think it is ok to pay some amount and create my own account to complete this course. But no success, the site charged an amount from my credit card while giving an error on the welcome page. I gave up and took another course.

As the information in the course is outdated, I am dissappointed.

It didn't meet my expectations. On the one hand, the videos are slides with the voice of an AI, where concepts are poured out without deep explanations. On the other hand, tasks consist of executing given commands, making some changes, and seeing the results. It is not a suitable course for deploying containers in real-life jobs.

The introduction to Docker and Kubernetes is rather short and shallow. The remainder of the course focuses on a very buggy and slow web UI to manage Kubernetes, which seems completely unnecessary. I recommend to use the official Kubernetes tutorials instead.

I could not finish the course because of failures in openshift web console app. It never worked when trying to open the lab for per grade assignment.

The course is good in general but the labs have many errors and do not allow to finish the course in time.

Lab has some problem with url ?
