DEV520 - Building a Full CI/CD Pipeline

Course Description

Short Course | 18 hours | 1.8 CEUs | $2,295

This course will provide hands-on experience building out a CI/CD pipeline from start to finish. It begins with source control management and ends with a fully-orchestrated pipeline using Jenkins. 

This DevOps CI/CD Pipeline training teaches attendees Git topics from the ground up, allowing students to securely push code to a remote Git repository. Next, attendees learn how to configure servers using a Configuration Management tool from code stored in Git. Finally, they integrate Git and Configuration Management with a CI/CD tool to build, test, and deploy your code into Test, Staging, and Production environments, creating an automated end-to-end DevOps pipeline. 

In this course students gain hands-on experience with Bitbucket, GitHub, GitLab, and Jenkins.

DEV520 is the second course in the DevSecOps Certificate. To complete the certificate students will also enroll in DEV510, & LIN300. Click on each course link for more details and to add to cart.
