Virtualization and Containers

Hey there! I’m not writing a walk through though, mind you. Just know again that this is BgB1T3 writing for my mission for the Act of Kindness badge. I just wanted to tell you about the new answer in this lab.

Basically this lab, Virtualization and Containers is all about current virtualization technologies, the problems they solve, and how they are implemented. Throughout this room, we have looked at virtualization in the context of microservices, but virtualization goes far beyond that. Virtual machines are portable; they can be stored, moved, and redeployed in the same state. With portability also comes ease of deployment; templates and “golden images” can be used to create an image or snapshot of a VM so it can be redeployed multiple times. Because virtual machines can be easily redeployed, they make a perfect environment for development and testing. If an unknown exception occurs or a machine breaks, you can always revert to a previous snapshot or the image from which you started. That’s basically the summary.

I just wanted to say that on Task 6, Kubernetes, the answer to the question 4, what is the pod name on the provided cluster?, they have changed the answer probably thrice, to the best of my knowledge.

First it was hello-tryhackme-f79f667fd-lh87b.

Then it was hello-tryhackme-875767b84-sfk2c.

But today, January 4th 2026, no one still knows about the new correct answer, hello-tryhackme-66c4d4d69d-gb9nz.
