DevOps Fundamentals: Containers, CI/CD, and IaC

The demand for faster, more reliable software delivery requires adopting modern DevOps practices. Learn the essential concepts that bridge development and operations to maximize efficiency and stability. Upon completion, you will possess a solid understanding of the core principles, tools, and workflows used in a modern DevOps environment, enabling you to contribute to automated delivery pipelines and manage infrastructure as code. What you'll learn: * Understand the core principles and cultural aspects of the DevOps methodology (CALMS). * Master containerization fundamentals using tools like Docker for consistent application packaging and deployment. * Configure Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines for automated testing and deployment. * Apply Infrastructure as Code (IaC) concepts to provision and manage resources declaratively. * Learn essential monitoring, logging, and observability practices for maintaining system health. * Practice basic DevSecOps principles to integrate security checks early in the development lifecycle. The course begins with foundational terminology and cultural shifts, then progresses through practical automation concepts, containerization, and the construction of basic CI/CD workflows. This course is designed for absolute beginners in software development or operations who need a comprehensive introduction to DevOps. No prior experience with automation tools is required.
