Prerequisites
Lab Info
For hands-on exercises, access to a Kubernetes cluster is required.

You should be able to complete the lab exercises with a Kubernetes cluster from cloud providers like GCP, AWS, Azure, or Oracle OCI. Some cloud providers offer free tiers or credits, but you may incur charges if you exceed the initially allocated cloud provider credits, or if the cloud provider’s terms and conditions change.
