Kubernetes Application Developer: Observability Logging and Probes

Effective observability in Kubernetes applications enables developers to diagnose issues, monitor health, and automate recovery.In this course, discover how to monitor application behavior using container logs, probes, and metrics to maintain visibility and control. Next, examine the differences between liveness, readiness, and startup probes, and practice implementing them to validate application health and responsiveness. Finally, learn how to troubleshoot containers using kubectl logs, events, and the kubectl describe command, as well as deploy the metrics-server to gather CPU and memory data, and integrate Prometheus to expose and query custom application metrics.This course is part of a series designed to prepare learners for the Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD) exam.
