💥 It was my pleasure to attend Kubernetes Training under the guidance of Mr. Vimal Daga sir. In the starting i don’t have any technological knowledge only have some basics of language, but when i joined Linux World , now i know lots of technologies. Being a part of Linux World and under the able guidance of Mr. Vimal Daga who was itself a privilege.

Thankyou so much sir . I love the way of your Teaching. You teaches in a way that even a beginner can learn and understand.
