Kubernetes Scheduler Challenge
Drag-and-drop Pods onto Nodes while honoring kube scheduling rules: resources, taints/tolerations, selectors, and topology spread.
Place all Pods without exceeding node capacity. Learn requests and basic bin-packing.

Log Aggregation Pipeline Simulator
Follow production logs from applications through collection, parsing, filtering, buffering, sharded indexing, and search. Trigger traffic spikes, parser failures, and slow indexing to see where backpressure builds and logs can be lost.
