In this course, "Architecting with Google Kubernetes Engine: Foundations," you get a review of the layout and principles of Google Cloud, followed by an introduction to creating and managing software containers and an introduction to the architecture of Kubernetes.

its an amazing course for me . i learn alot about dockers container and GKE specially . its was a an awsum course i recommend those people as who wana learn something new.

I enjoyed Brian and all the course facilitators. Now I understand the theoretical layer of how Kubernetes and Google Kubernetes engine work.

I can see that the course was updated during the time. This is causing some confusing trasitions between lectures. The Anthos part is very confusing and the videos are not practically applicable imho

This course contains redundant topics for guys who already familiar with GCP: first two labs). It would be great if u will let ability to skip first two labs).
SY
Insightful labs to get the student started from a learning perspective. Prepares the student to apply this knowledge when faced with real world complexities.

Good introduction, I really liked the qwiklabs, the scenarios were better on avarage compared to previous GCP-related courses I have taken on coursera.

I would give it 5 stars if I took it as the start to the GKE specialization, but it was fairly simple for a course almost at the end of the Preparing for GC Cloud Architect Cert track.
VM
An excellent course. All the terminologies of Kubernetes have been explained well. Anyone with less Cloud experience can understand the concepts easily. Thanks!
JC
It was a great course, I was expecting to recieve more hands-on experience with Kubernetes before jumping right in to GKE, but I should've known better!
PI
Great certification and really good level of detail.10/10 would recommend. Some small inconsistencies exist but they are actively being fixed.

Good introduction to GKE. Starting from defining cloud en general to presenting the different compute solutions in GCP, until arriving to K8s specifics. I will recommend to any one.

This course on the fundamentals of Kubernetes from Google Cloud is a good start for anyone interested in the topics of containers and Kubernetes Engine in the cloud.

There is too much repetition between content of this course and the content of the first course in the specialization. It would be nice if this course already assumed that everyone has taken the "Google Cloud Foundations" course and avoid repeating content from it.
The course was useful, but doing it as part of the "Cloud Engineering with Google Platform" specialization felt slightly out of place and repetitive. Most of the first half of the course has already been discussed in earlier parts of the specialization. As such, a more advanced course on Kubernetes would be more suitable as the 5th course in the series.
Awesome course to start learning about containers, kubernetes and Google Kubernetes Engine.

Some stuff is repetative and sounds like GCP advert in some instances
Need to update the labs.
Nicely streamlined course on GKE with a good comparison with standard Kubernetes. The discussion of the internal workings and architecture of GKE in managing and provisioning resources for pods and their containers was very helpful. Thank you!

Each time more I learn more about GCP world. Tks Cousera, Tks Google, Tks FCA.
Google Cloud series provide the best learning experience for me. Good jobs!
Fantastic walk through of basic Kubernetes and GKE concepts.
Good to know the fundamentals...
So Great with this course.

Short introduction to Kubernetes
Cloud shell / SDK execution and GCP Console refresh is NOT at all working for Service account creation and Service account privilege modifications through iam command line options though the commands are executed and effective. One can even see in the event log -
Similarly, GCP Console is not refreshing at all for file object updates into Bitbucket(s)
Caused lot of issues and overheads due to that
Kindly look into this to resolve this - in otherwise a good course
Take pain in the Coursera toolchain to automatically mark the modules which I have completed already as part of PCA specialization. I had to do the whole thing again!!
Why you couldn't have told be at the time of enrollment that the rest of the modules are not accessible?? I have to wait for the next module, ridiculous !!
Even the previous / other overview courses had more enriched lab exercises on kubernetes, but this course on kubernetes itself, does not have sufficiently comprehensive lab exercises. The course structure and content should also be revised as it is hapazard, and not up to the usual standard of other modules of this course (cloud architect). Most of the chapters are already covered in other modules of this 7-part course. Please completely revise the content of this module on kubernetes.
1. The labs for GKE are too simple in this course because this is a specialization course not a introcutory course.
2. The "Migrate to Anthos" topic does not fit in this course. It is better placed at the end of the Specialzation track after learners have a good knowledge and skills about GKE.
