Description:

Organizations around the world increasingly implement the DevOps methodology to optimize daily systems management and software development tasks. As a result, the demand for qualified professionals in a recognizable manner has increased considerably in everything related to the implementation of this work philosophy. Companies seek to hire IT profiles that can apply DevOps effectively to reduce documentation time and improve quality in the development of new software products.

The software industry is rapidly evolving towards the value of using containers due to the simplicity in the development, deployment and orchestration of environments for application developers.

Containers effectively manage differences between environments, allow for improved scalability, and provide prediction of application behaviour in Continuous Deployment (CD) . In addition to the technical advantages, the containers have shown a great reduction of costs in complex environments.

However, the management of elastic and large-scale applications are difficult to manage and this is where the orchestration tools such as Kubernetes/Openshift are brilliant.

The objective of this workshop is to show how to design and implement the complete stack of an application fully integrated in Docker containers, orchestrated by Kubernetes / Openshift with an IC / CD pipeline to manage deployments using Jenkins.

This workshop is part of the academic initiative Linux Professional Institute – LPI.

To help meet the growing need for qualified professionals, LPI has developed the LPIC-Open Technology DevOps Tools Engineer certification LPIC-OT 701 that verifies the skills needed to use the tools that improve collaboration in workflows throughout the system administration and software development.

To develop the LPIC-Open Technology DevOps Tools Engineer LPIC-OT 701, LPI reviewed the panorama of tools framed in the DevOps methodology and defined a set of essential skills when applying it. As such, the certification exam focuses on the practical skills necessary to work successfully in a DevOps environment and to use the most prominent DevOps tools.

The result is a certification that covers the intersection between development and operations, making it relevant to all IT professionals working in the DevOps field.

PUE is the LPI partner in Spain that exclusively manages the LPI AAP program for educational organizations interested in training and certifying their students as qualified professionals in Linux and open source technologies.
