This course emphasizes hands-on application and tooling. It presupposes a solid grasp of theoretical principles (refer to the DEVOPS course) and concentrates on the latest tools and methods for applying DevOps principles.

This instructor-led, live training in Italy (online or onsite) is tailored for DevOps engineers who aim to optimize and streamline the CI/CD process using Docker and Jenkins.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be capable of:

• Automating code delivery and pipeline deployment via Jenkins.
• Developing applications utilizing Docker and Dockerfiles.
• Setting up authentication mechanisms to enhance security protocols.

This instructor-led, live training in Italy covers the concepts, tools and techniques needed to carry out continuous integration of your software projects in an Agile environment. Participants carry out a series of hands-on exercises throughout the course to apply their knowledge in real situations. Interaction among instructor and participants is encouraged. Real-world cases are discussed and specific issues and questions are addressed and resolved in class.

This instructor-led, live training in Italy (online or onsite) targets engineers who wish to use Jenkins 2 to build pipelines that automate the process of moving an application from development to production.

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

• Install and configure Jenkins 2.
• Adopt a scripting approach to automate every step of the software deployment process.
• Automatically generate application builds when software is checked into a version control system.
• Automatically kick off the compiling, testing, and packaging of a software application.
• Quickly respond to notifications and reports when things go wrong.
• Install additional plugins to extend Jenkins.

This instructor-led, live training in Italy (online or onsite) delves into advanced Jenkins configurations, security measures, and scaling techniques. It is intended for DevOps engineers and software architects seeking to specialize in tailoring Jenkins for complex software endeavors.

By the conclusion of this program, participants will be capable of:

• Optimizing Jenkins for enterprise-grade software projects.
• Implementing sophisticated security protocols.
• Constructing complex and scalable pipelines.
• Effectively troubleshooting and maintaining Jenkins environments.

After completing a code segment, developers typically integrate their work into an application, copy the application to a specific folder, execute the installer, and initialize the app to verify its functionality. This manual method lacks scalability, is tedious and error-prone, and fails to provide a mechanism for tracking changes throughout the process.

A superior approach involves automating this workflow through Continuous Integration. Continuous Integration encompasses the processes, tools, and infrastructure required to automate the building, deployment, and testing of software applications.

In this instructor-led live training (available onsite or remotely), participants will learn how to transition from a traditional, manual (or semi-manual) software deployment approach to an agile Continuous Integration (CI) model using Jenkins. Throughout the course, participants engage in hands-on, live-lab exercises, applying their newly acquired knowledge to various software development and deployment challenges at every stage. Active interaction between the instructor and participants is encouraged. Real-world case studies are discussed, and specific issues and questions are addressed and resolved throughout the training. The content is particularly focused on .NET application development.
 
Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Jenkins for .NET application development
• Leverage Jenkins to automate the process of checking in and merging .NET source code into a repository
• Utilize Jenkins to automate the downloading, compiling, and deployment of applications to a release server
• Integrate Jenkins with other software development tools, such as issue trackers, and

Audience

• .NET developers
• Build engineers
• QA engineers
• Project managers
• Release managers
• DevOps engineers

Format of the Course

• Combination of lectures, discussions, exercises, and extensive hands-on practice
