Introduction to KubeVirt
Workshop

A running VM does not tell you whether KubeVirt fits your Kubernetes operating model for a particular workload. Platform teams need to evaluate lifecycle, images, networking, storage, access, and maintenance together. In this two-day live training, you work in a prepared multi-node cluster. You trace the KubeVirt objects behind a virtual machine, provision a persistent Linux VM, and verify its operation through Kubernetes status, events, and your own test artifacts. You finish with tested manifests, a connectivity and permission matrix, migration and restore evidence, and a short operator chec
