New MinIO Learning Subscription

MinIO, Inc. announced its Learning Subscription, featuring unlimited access to firm’s full portfolio of training content.

Through the subscription, training is delivered through a combination of videos, practical exercises and hands-on labs, designed to help customers accelerate onboarding for new staff and shorten time-to-market.

The Learning Subscription learners will soon have more than 250 videos organized into courses for company’s administrators, developers, and Kubernetes operators. The content is indexed and searchable, allowing for targeted, just-in-time performance support. Additionally, students can also choose to learn on the go using the mobile app.

“Enterprises seeking to leverage AI and ML to transform their business need infrastructure at a level of scale and performance previously unthinkable,” said Pete Hnath, head of training and certification. “The MinIO Object Store is integral to reach petabyte and even exabyte scale while delivering the performance AI/ML requies. The Learning Subscription offers an accelerated on ramp to prepare teams to deploy and manage object storage at scale.”

Validation of skill transfer and job role readiness is critical for project leaders. The Learning Subscription includes a voucher for each named learner to attempt the MinIO Certified Administrator – Practitioner exam.

The Learning Subscription enables users to learn by doing with comprehensive, hands-on labs. Learners progress through lab-focused video demos, followed by hands-on guided exercises, and then outcome focused end-of-module labs to build the applied skills needed to take full advantage of vendor’s powerful capabilities in production environments. Lab exercises can be completed on the student’s local system using basic Docker compose scripts. Subscribers also receive exclusive access to a trial license of MinIO Enterprise Object Store to learn about features including caching, catalog, firewall, observability, and Key Management Server (KMS) that are unique to the enterprise offering.

Similarly, interacting with others is integral to the learning experience. The Learning Subscription includes an engaging peer-to-peer learning model where students can ask questions, get answers, and see others’ contributions inline with the course content. The firm’s curriculum engineers are also directly accessible to students. This provides a fluid and integrated model for collaborative learning missing from many other online learning experiences. 

Technical enablement is critical to customer success. At $700 per learner (with volume discounts available starting at just 10 learners), the Learning Subscription is priced to encourage customers to invest in their team in preparation for project success. To learn more, visit the MinIO training.
