VMware Tanzu Mission Control: Management and Operations 2020-On Demand

During this course, equivalent to 1 day of training, you focus on using VMware Tanzu™ Mission Control™ to provision and manage Kubernetes clusters. The course covers how to apply access, image registry, and network policies to clusters. For cluster provisioning, the course focuses on deploying Kubernetes clusters on VMware vSphere with Tanzu. Given the abstractions of VMware Tanzu Mission Control, the learnings should be transferrable to public cloud.

This course is also available in an Instructor-Led Training (ILT) format.

• Describe the Tanzu Mission Control architecture
• Configure user and group access
