Solo Academy Testimonials

Great and long session, learnt a lot of stuff. Thank you so much team for arranging this workshop
Gopinath A.

This is one of the few expert sources I have seen around for Istio education. Usually coursses just follow the documentation from istio.io, but your workshop had all original content that was AMAZING.
Skip A.

Very happy with the workshop.
Christian A.

Absolutely loved the workshop. The hands-on platform was amazing and added more interaction to the workshop and allowed us attendees to try the enterprise tools ourselves without having to install all of the necessary tools/dependencies….

Great workshop. Thank you

The coursework solo academy has created is amazing. They have deep expertise with Istio, Kubernetes and Envoy and understand not just the theory, but how to make Istio run in production. There knowledge comes through in the every course
