Resilient Architecture: Microservices, Containers, and CI/CD Training Course

Resilient architecture is the foundation of modern, scalable applications. This course covers microservices architecture, container-based application design, and CI/CD deployment strategies to build highly available and fault-tolerant systems.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level to advanced-level developers, DevOps professionals, and architects who wish to design, deploy, and manage resilient applications using microservices, containers, and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

Understand and implement microservices architecture.
Deploy and manage containerized applications with Docker and Kubernetes.
Set up and optimize CI/CD pipelines for automated deployments.
Apply best practices for security, monitoring, and observability.

Format of the Course

Interactive lecture and discussion.
Lots of exercises and practice.
Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.

Anup Kumar - SMR Automotive Mirrors Stuttgart

Course - Jenkins 2: Building CI/CD Pipelines

The trainer was very well organized. He explained about all the tools required for the training in the beginning. The trainer happily clarified all the doubts and practical use cases were discussed.

Vivek Verma - Global Knowledge Network Training Ltd

Course - DevOps Practical Implementation and Tools

Very detailed, trainer knows the subject very well and has covered a lot of topics

Gabriel Kelly Navarro - Opswerks

Course - Advanced Spinnaker

Luke was very knowledgeable, patient, and very open to satisfy my curiosity, for example I asked him to generate errors to see how system will response, etc. He would go above and beyond to answer questions or demonstrate the functionalities, even some of my questions were out of the class scope. He gave me a real experience with the system. I definitely will take another class with him and recommend him as a teacher for others. Thank you Luke!.

Tina Henderson

Course - Test Automation with Selenium and Jenkins

All of it. Having had no previous exposure to Jenkins, I was a little concerned about my ability to keep up. IPad provided appropriate coaching/support, when I asked for help, so that I was able to follow the presentation at a level I was happy with.
