Implementing a CI/CD Pipeline

This three-day, instructor-led, hands-on, technical class gives DevOps team members the ability to automate an entire end-to-end CI/CD pipeline. Primary tools used in class include Github, Chef, and Jenkins. You will also use ChefSpec, Inspec, Test Kitchen, Groovy, Maven, and JFrog Artifactory. This is a fast-paced, technical, lab-centric course, and you will leave with best practice experience in building a sample pipeline. If you do not meet the required experience for this course, you will have a hard time keeping up.

If desired, private clients can add a fourth day to include Docker, and the fifth day to include Terraform. Sections including those tools are delineated in the course outline with italic text. We also have the capacity to substitute Ansible for Chef in any version of the course.
