Don't let this gap widen
Why this program matters
Without expert mastery of Linkerd, your Kubernetes clusters risk 25% unplanned downtime due to invisible network failures, leading to revenue losses estimated at 50k€/day for a scale-up SME.
mTLS configuration errors expose you to security breaches, with 40% of service mesh incidents undetected in real-time according to CNCF.
Miss traffic optimization, and your infra costs explode by 30% through overprovisioning.
Train to avoid these pitfalls, secure 99.99% availability, and scale confidently in production.
Program
Module 1Linkerd Deployment and Configuration: expert installation, proxies and policies (Kubernetes, Helm, CLI).
Dive into advanced Linkerd installation on a dedicated Kubernetes cluster, configure sidecar proxies via Helm and CLI, test mTLS on real microservices, deploy traffic policies with retry and circuit breaker, perform hands-on exercises to validate resilience, produce an operational compliance report, and exchange on your real-world cases for immediate application.
Module 2Linkerd Observability and Optimization: monitoring, troubleshooting, tuning (Prometheus, Grafana, debug).
Explore the Linkerd dashboard and integrate Prometheus/Grafana to analyze real-time metrics, diagnose network failures using advanced debug tools, optimize performance with golden signals, simulate critical loads on production use cases, generate custom alerts, and conclude with a deliverable project integrating Linkerd into your CI/CD pipeline, boosting your expertise for zero-downtime deployments.
Evaluation method
- Practical evaluations through exercises and real cases.
- Final interactive quiz on troubleshooting.
- Self-assessment via lab reports.
Learning method
- 70% hands-on on live Kubernetes clusters.
- 20% peer experience sharing.
- 10% theory applied to Linkerd tools.

- End of training: self-assessment questionnaire and skills evaluation by the trainer
- After training: completion certificate detailing acquired skills
Program accessibility
Learni is committed to making its programs accessible. All our programs are accessible to people with disabilities. Our teams are available to adapt the pedagogical methods to your specific needs. Please contact us for any adjustment request.
Enrollment terms and lead times
Registration is possible up to 48 business hours before the start of training. All our programs are built for corporate L&D budgets and delivered onsite or remotely.
Our method
Training quality, guaranteed at every step
Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.
You meet the trainer beforehand
30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.
- Live briefing on goals and team context.
- Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Content tailored to your context
No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.
- Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
- Program co-written then validated by your team.
Continuous quality follow-up
Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.
- NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
- Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.
A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.

What can participants do after Linkerd training?+
They can deploy Linkerd in multi-cluster with high availability, configure mTLS and advanced traffic policies and implement monitoring and custom metrics. Those are the stated objectives of the Linkerd program at Expert level, checked by the end-of-session assessment.
What does the Linkerd program cover, day by day?+
Day 1: Linkerd Deployment and Configuration: expert installation, proxies and policies (Kubernetes, Helm, CLI). Day 2: Linkerd Observability and Optimization: monitoring, troubleshooting, tuning (Prometheus, Grafana, debug). The Linkerd program runs over 2 days, delivered on site.
How is Linkerd training assessed?+
Assessment relies on practical evaluations through exercises and real cases, final interactive quiz on troubleshooting and self-assessment via lab reports. Learni issues a completion certificate together with the individual assessment report at the end of the Linkerd program, which an L&D team can file as evidence.
How much does Linkerd training cost per participant?+
$2,310 (USD) per participant. A detailed quote is sent within one business day, and team pricing applies from the second participant.
How long does Linkerd training take?+
2 days, available live online (US time zones) or on-site at your offices. Half-day tracks spread over several weeks are possible so the team stays operational.
