Supporting material

Private

A private training session for your team. Groups can be of any size, at a location of your choice including our training centres.

This two-day course is designed for IT professionals who are engaged in the design, implementation, and management of DevOps deployment pipelines and toolchains that support Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, and Continuous Testing.

The course was developed by leveraging key SRE sources, engaging with thought-leaders in the SRE space and working with organisations embracing SRE to extract real-life best practices and has been designed to teach the key principles & practices necessary for starting SRE adoption.

Increased productivity and employee morale by having more activities performed by pipelines instead of humans so teams can focus on vision while pipelines do the execution.

The course equips you with the competencies necessary in architecting and orchestrating effective and efficient automated deployment pipelines.

By the end of the course learners will be prepared for the Continuous Delivery Architect exam.

Our Continuous Delivery Architecture course is available as a private training session and will be run over two consecutive days. It can be delivered at our own training venues in the Rosebank Link, Johannesburg or Umhlanga or any location of your choice.
