Cloud-Native Curriculum for Diverse Student Cohorts
Talkat Cloud Native University | KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2024 · on Tuesday, 2024-11-12·
summary
A graduate course is revamped into three units—unit 1 IaaS, cloud-native primitives and mlops—with assignments mapped to portfolio work and a capstone where small teams deliver an end-to-end ML service exposing a curlable API. Affordability is tackled via industry partnership (Digital Ocean fully funds the semester) because common student credits like the $200 Digital Ocean credit and $100 Azure often run out; initial offering averaged a C‑, later exams average ~95 after restructuring.
