Topic : DevOps

From this workshop, trainees will:

• Understand the methodologies and practices available in Agile, and to which situation each is applicable
• Gain a shared understanding within the organization of the challenges and expectation of each role, and a shared perspective when addressing process improvements
• Learn how Agile values affect requirements engineering
• Identify and describe user roles, write and evaluate user stories, and learn estimation and prioritization for iterations and releases
• Learn how to split and/or combine user stories, how to write effective acceptance criteria and tests for user stories, capture non-functional requirements as stories, and derive tests from User Stories

• Describe the main principles of Lean Management and Agile leadership, and apply them in a change management context.
• Assess your organisational maturity across the five key areas in the Continuous Delivery Maturity Model.
• Understand high-level Cloud Native technical concepts such as microservices and containerisation.
• Identify key capabilities, processes and resources needed for successful Cloud Native digital transformation and strategy.

• Use the Docker client to build images and run containers
• Write a Dockerfile, build an image and run it as a container, and store the image in a registry.
• Use the kubectl CLI commands to create resources on a Kubernetes cluster.
• Deploy and update applications in a Kubernetes cluster.
• Configure probes to implement best-practice application deployment patterns
• Troubleshoot deployment issues.
• Understand when and how to use the various Kubernetes Service Types and Networking Controller to direct traffic as required for applications within a cluster.
• Employ best practices for namespacing and labelling of Kubernetes resources.

• Set up a basic Maven project
• Use GitLab to build, integrate, and verify code
• Learn best practices in CI

• Learn how to set up and manage a Kubernetes cluster, including networking, storage, and security configurations, which is crucial for both developers when designing applications and administrators when managing the infrastructure.
• Understand how to integrate Kubernetes into a DevOps workflow, including continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) practices with tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, or GitHub Actions.
