Course overview
A tool-agnostic course on designing delivery pipelines, then implementing them on three platforms. The course starts from delivery principles small changes, fast feedback, reproducible builds, safe rollback and then implements the same pipeline in GitHub Actions, GitLab Cl and Jenkins so learners can compare.
Deployment strategies, environment promotion, secrets and observability are covered as first-class topics.
Who it is for
- DevOps and platform engineers
- Developers owning deployments
- QA engineers embedding tests in pipelines
- Team leads defining release process
Prerequisites
Git, Docker basics and familiarity with one cloud platform.
How it runs
Learn → Practise → Build → Experience → Demonstrate, ending in a capstone. Delivered by practitioners from the engineering bench, in Madurai, Coimbatore and online.
