DevOps is less a toolkit than a question of collaboration: development and operations share responsibility for delivering software to users reliably and at short intervals. Automation is a means to an end, not an end in itself.
In our DevOps courses, you learn the core principles and how to put them into practice. You deal with end-to-end delivery pipelines, automated building and testing, monitoring and feedback from operations, and the question of how established organisations can make the transition step by step.
The course conveys the latest thinking, principles and practices from the DevOps community, including real-world case studies from high-performing organisations such as ING Bank, Ticketmaster, Capital One, Alaska Air, Target, Fannie Mae, Societe Generale and Disney, designed to engage and inspire learners. Multimedia content and interactive exercises bring the learning experience to life, including the Three Ways as described in Gene Kim’s book «The Phoenix Project», as well as the latest findings from the «State of DevOps Report». Participants gain an understanding of DevOps, the cultural and professional movement that puts communication, collaboration, integration and automation first in order to improve the workflow between software developers and IT operations professionals. The course is aimed at a broad audience and enables people from the business side to gain an understanding of Kubernetes and containers. People with a technical background gain an understanding of the business benefits of DevOps: lower costs (15–25% reduction in total IT costs) with higher quality (50–70% fewer failed changes) and agility (up to 90% shorter provisioning and deployment times), supporting business goals as part of digital transformation initiatives.
In this course you will learn how security and compliance are integrated into DevOps organisations and continuous delivery workflows, rather than being checked only at the end. You will learn the purpose, benefits, concepts and terminology of DevSecOps, understand «Security as Code» and how DevSecOps roles fit into a DevOps culture. The course follows the structure of the DevSecOps Foundation (DSOF) certification from DevOps Institute (PeopleCert Group) and prepares you for the exam.
