Dear all,

before removing the 'draft' status from the 305 objectives page (
https://wiki.lpi.org/wiki/LPIC-305_Objectives_V3.0), what do you think
about the current relevance of Xen (weight: 4) and Qemu (weight: 6)
compared to Kubernetes (currently contained in a weight 2 objective). To me
it seems that Xen becomes less and less relevant while Qemu/KVM is almost
entirely used through other means (libvirt, proxmox, ...), so testing their
specific options and configuration knobs might be arguable.

On the other hand, Docker is more and more used through Kubernetes.
Currently we just cover the overall concepts of Kubernetes. What if we
would reduce the weights of Xen and Qemu to 1 and 2 or 2 and 3 respectively
to just cover the architecture in order to free up 5 to 7 weight points
which we could spend on Kubernetes instead? We could create another
objective about understanding the architecture of Kubernetes, set up a
Kubernetes cluster through kubeadm and understand the roles and functions
of the most important Kubernetes objects (pods, replicasets, deployments,
daemonsets, services, ingress). I wouldn't test creating and managing these
objects since that would be more related to the DevOps certification, but
cover enough for a kubernetes node admin to understand what their users are
doing.

Let me know your thoughts :)

Fabian
