I’ve passed the Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD) exam
I decided to renew an expired CKAD.
Final score: 96%.

The exam is still fully hands-on and I like it.
Kubernetes version moved forward a lot: CKAD was around Kubernetes v1.22 in late 2021, while the current exam environment is based on Kubernetes v1.33
Preparation#
Preparation was simple:
- Sander Van Vught
- Killer Shell
That’s more than enough if you already work with Kubernetes and are used to solving problems under time pressure.
No tricks. Just Kubernetes, a terminal, and a timer.
