DevOps Master Program

OVERVIEW

This program features the perfect mix of theory,

case studies, and extensive hands-on practice to
prepare you for a fast-growing field that bridges
the gap between software developers and
operations. This Program, designed for graduates
in any discipline and experienced professionals
from programming and non-programming
backgrounds, offers a blend of live virtual classes,
hands-on projects, and labs. Students also have
access to mentorship sessions, providing a
highengagement learning experience and real
world applications to help master essential
DevOps skills. Students also will get hands-on
experience in continuous deployment using
current configuration management tools like
Ansible. At the end of this course, learners will be
able to write and master front-end deployment
and back-end codes and manage hosts for both
monitoring and scaling. This program will enable
students to demonstrate their knowledge of
automating workflow and getting products to
market more efficiently and effectively with tools
such as Ansible, Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes, and
GIT. Learners will also get practical experience
with the development and operational activities

DevOps of teams, continuous code releases, integration,

and deployment processes.

Project #1 - Infrastructure Automation

Example company is using Cloud for one of their application hosting. The
project uses modular components, multiple frameworks and want the
components to be developed by different teams or by 3rd-party vendors.
PROJECT
+
The company’s goal is to deliver the product updates frequently to
INTERVIEW production with High quality & Reliability. They also want to accelerate

TER
PREPARATION software delivery speed, quality and reduce feedback time between
developers and testers. As development progressed, they are facing multiple
problems, because of various technologies involved in the project. Some of
the challenges are:

Building Complex builds is difficult

Incremental builds are difficult to manage, and deploy
Creating infrastructure on AWS manually is time consuming and prone to errors
Creating kubernetes cluster on AWS manually is taking time and more resources
Code created/modified by one team member is not visible to other team members
There must be a graphical interface to measure performance of application / cluster

To solve these problems, they need to implement Continuous Integration & Continuous Deployment
with DevOps using following tools:

1. Terraform: For provisioning kubernetes infrastructure on AWS. State file should be stored either
in S3 or terraform cloud
2. Git: For version control for tracking changes in the code files of terraform, ansible, docker etc
3. Jenkins: For continuous integration and continuous deployment
4. Docker: For deploying containerized applications
5. Ansible: Configuration management tool which will be used to create kubernetes cluster on aws
and configuring servers
6. AWS: should be used as our platform to build HA infrastructure
7. Grafana / Prometheus: For monitoring cluster / application performance

+
Your basic work flow should be like this:

Step #1 - You should have a separate git repository for terraform

configuration
Step #2 - Terraform team will write the code to create a vpc with
PROJECT
+
complete network and push it on their git repo
INTERVIEW Step #3 - Jenkins, which is already running on AWS should pick the code

TER
PREPARATION from git and create infrastructure in your AWS account
Step #4 - You should then have a separate git repository for ansible
playbooks which will install kubernetes cluster using Jenkins pipeline
Step #5 - Installing prometheus/grafana on kubernetes cluster

Note: additional configuration settings like IP / vpc etc will be shared in classroom.

Project #2 - Application Automation

Now, once Example company's infrastructure is setup on cloud. They want

to sell their products online. Company wants a solution that can reduce
the time and effort it needs to enhance its website functionality on a
PROJECT
+
regular basis. They are looking for an automated way to deploy the new
INTERVIEW code (for new features) to the production website whenever they want.

TER
PREPARATION
Steps to follow:

The team of developers working on new features will merge their code to a GitHub repo
As soon as the code is pushed on GitHub, using a CI (Continuous Integration) pipeline, setup in
Jenkins, an automated build will be triggered
The automated build will frequently deploy new features to the production website
Every build will prepare a Dockerfile and push docker images to company's docker-hub
repository
Every docker image will be deployed (Continuous Deployment) to a kubernetes-cluster

Your basic work flow should be like this:

Step #1 - Developer will push the application code into github repo
Step #2 - Jenkins should pick the changes in website application code & build a new image out of it
Step #3 - The new image should be pushed to company's dockerhub repository
Step #4 - As soon as a new image is available, Jenkins, should pick the new image and start building
new version of application

Note: additional information about application / branches will be shared in classroom
