A hands-on learning platform for Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, and Networking
Learn infrastructure skills by solving real-world engineering challenges in ready-to-use Linux environments.
“The approach of using challenges to deepen one's knowledge in a given area (e.g. kubernetes or linux container networking) is exactly what I needed. I recommed this to my co-workers.”
iximiuz Labs learnerGo from your first Linux commands to working confidently in the terminal. Build fluency through short, regular practice sessions.
“Great stuff, really fun way to learn commands.”
Parth DabgarSecurity SpecialistLearn Docker from the ground up with clear explanations, visual diagrams, and hands-on scenarios.
“Brilliant platform - great hands-on stuff. My gut screams this website will help me get my fundamentals even clearer related to networking/containers.”
iximiuz Labs learnerGo beyond the basics with in-depth tutorials and structured courses. Follow practical examples and try things yourself in ready-to-use playgrounds.
Learn how to implement a basic per-client ICMPv6 packet rate limiter using eBPF/XDP. This tutorial shows how to track client activity with eBPF maps and enforce limits directly in the kernel—without any user-space interaction.
In this tutorial, we’ll look at how different eBPF tracing mechanisms work in practice by focusing on a single use case: capturing execve system call events. We’ll start with tracepoints, move on to raw tracepoints, and then cover kprobes and fprobes, showing how each attaches to the kernel and what data they expose. Along the way, we’ll compare their trade-offs in terms of stability, performance, and portability.
Learn how to get started with OpenBao/Vault by walking through the basics of initialization, unsealing, authentication, and secret management.
Spin up Linux VMs, Docker hosts, or Kubernetes clusters in seconds. Connect through a browser terminal or SSH, try things out, and break stuff.
“I like the labs! They help me stay sharp and practice my craft. I also want to support Ivan as I think he's a great maker!”
Ivan Iliev“It looks cool and gets straight to the point. For someone with a full-time job and a family, it makes sense to have detailed technical content available without any unnecessary fluff.”
“it's is great learning by doing platform for who want structure learning and play with linux”
mason wu“Amazing platform. I was hooked the moment I saw it on Twitter (X). It helped me to understand many concepts in Linux and Unix like OS.”
Riad AfridiSoftware Engineer at Evatix“I love learning. I'm a lifetime learner and I have never seen a platform like this with so much potential. I had to sign up for a lifetime membership.”
Jack MartinI'm a lifetime learner. I love learning.“fantastic platform. They really nailed it. Its worth every penny”
Sam BartelsSoftware Engineer“Iximiuz Labs is an excellent platform for hands-on learning through practical exercises, challenges, and the Shell Gym environment. It provides a great way to develop and strengthen your technical skills through real-world practice.”
Edwin BermudezKubestronaut“This is great. The shell gym is nice.”
“Truly the best platform for hands-on learning and perfecting server-side (and not only) skills! With each challenge and tutorial I am learning so many new things it's incredible. I feel privileged to have the lifetime membership at such a low cost. Ivan, anything you need -- just reach out! Thanks you for creating this platform!”
Teodor Daskalov“Excellent, even with my almost 20 years of experience, I am learning new things”
Alejandro“Great platform to learn the fundamentals of Linux, Networking and Containers using real infrastructure along with wide range of in-depth tutorials and challenges. Strongly recommended.”
