LEARNING PATH
DevOps Engineer
Take a reviewed change through a secure delivery pipeline, promote a verified release, measure its effect on users, and prove recovery when it fails.
What you will be able to do
- Diagnose the Linux and network foundations of a service before changing it.
- Use GitLab to review source and connect tested commits to immutable release artifacts.
- Package constrained containers, provision infrastructure, and operate Kubernetes workloads.
- Separate build and deployment authority, verify release evidence, and handle credential exposure.
- Use metrics, logs, traces, and service objectives to distinguish healthy, unhealthy, and inconclusive results.
- Promote the verified candidate, detect user impact, and demonstrate a compatible recovery with an operational handover.
Work through each subject’s free foundations, then its practical course before moving to the next subject. This is a recommended sequence; foundations can be skipped with acknowledgment on the course page. Practical-course prerequisites still apply. Previously saved curricula and purchased access stay as they were when you added them.
