They will have an understanding of key concepts such as Kubernetes networking, storage, security, maintenance, logging and monitoring, application lifecycle, troubleshooting, API object primitives and the ability to establish basic use-cases for end users.

KCNA is an associate-level certification designed for candidates interested in advancing their work with cloud native technologies. The CKA certification is for Kubernetes administrators, cloud administrators and other IT professionals who manage Kubernetes instances.

KCNA & CKA were created by The Linux Foundation and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as a part of their ongoing effort to help develop the Kubernetes ecosystem. KCNA is a multiple choice exam and confirms conceptual knowledge of the cloud native ecosystem. The CKA exam is an online, proctored, performance-based test that requires solving multiple tasks from a command line running Kubernetes.
