Detailed Review Of Preparation

The CKA is a hard exam, though it's definitely doable if you get enough practical knowledge. I recommend these sources:

• CKA knowledge
  • these CKA series with scenarios on Medium. You setup your own cluster environment on your local machine, filled with challenges to solve
  • imagine and create your own scenarios to solve
  • know advanced scheduling: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/scheduling/kube-scheduler
  • CKA simulator on https://killer.sh
  • Use a large screen so you have more space. Read about the browser terminal
  • Udemy course if you can get it for a reduced price around ~10$
• CKAD knowledge is very helpful as fell because the CKA is almost 50% CKAD knowledge
  • maybe 2–3 times https://github.com/dgkanatsios/CKAD-exercises
  • the CKAD series with scenarios on Medium 
    
    

To be upfront, I'm the creator of https://killer.sh where we offer a completely simulated CKA Simulator environment. You'll get a very close replica of the CKA environment and similar challenges to solve. Once you register you can also see free example challenges which might already be helpful.

This is how I actually studied and succeeded in the exam, I created my own challenges and environments to get practical knowledge. Because many people liked my shared content I created a simulator around it.

Happy learning and good luck for your certifications!
