Hi,

I am planning to get Kubernetes certs. I have some questions:

• Would it be better to sit for the CKA vs. CKAD?
• Can we say that CKA cert holder has all the knowledge CKAD cert holder has?
• Or are there some areas which CKAD covers that CKA doesn’t?

Fernando Jordan Silva:

  1. Totally depends on you, for me CKAD was easier then CKA but it depends on if you have previous experience using kubernetes or not
  2. No. Both are from a different target users: CKAD is for developers and CKA is for administrators. There are some topics in common but both are different certifications
  3. Already answered :wink:

Asjad Jawed Siddiqui:
Thanks @Fernando Jordan Silva

I have about a year of xp working with K8s, mainly getting it to boost my CV.

I am guessing CKA > CKAD?

Fernando Jordan Silva:
as you know already k8s, I think is better to do CKAD > CKA. CKAD will not be a problem for you but you can use it to know how the exam is working
