RancherOS is an open-source Linux distribution that runs the entire operating system (including system services such as udev and rsyslog) as Docker containers. RancherOS includes only the bare minimum software needed to run Docker. It runs Docker as PID1 and dynamically pulls everything else it needs through Docker. At about 22MB, RancherOS is easy to distribute, orchestrate and spin up in your data center.

This instructor-led, live training introduces RancherOS's architecture, tools, and components and walks participants step-by-step through the setup of RancherOS in a live lab environment. By the end of this training, participants will have the understanding and practice to use RancherOS to run containers at scale in development, test and production.

Format of the Course

- Interactive lecture and discussion.
- Lots of exercises and practice.
- Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
