Course overview
Rescue your team's confidence in production updates with workflows and GitOps
Raise your production success and lower your stress by empowering your team with self-service automations and deployment dashboards. You'll apply my Cloud Native DevOps automation design constructed from my years of successful implementations for multiple organizations.
This course is for:
01
DevOps engineers who want to automate their testing and deployment workflows with GitHub
02
Build engineers who struggle with moving off legacy CI/CD tools to GitHub Actions
03
Software engineers who are sick of the lack of automation in their software lifecycle
What's in it for you?
Ship code faster and with greater visibility and reliability
Building, testing, and deploying your apps to Kubernetes should be easier! Discover how GitHub Actions and Argo CD can get your time back.
Advance your GitHub Actions experience and implement container lifecycle automation
You'll use real-world templates to start automated container builds, CVE scans, testing, linting, and more. Security best practices are also provided.
Discover how others are solving their DevOps and automation needs
With small group cohort-based learning, you can share and collaborate with other DevOps teams on workflow ideas and how they approach solving business problems with automation.
Customize the pieces in class to fit your requirements
You'll add my templates to your own GitHub repos to start seeing benefits immediately. Combine best-of-breed tools into a simple and low-maintenance design.

Hi 👋 I'm Bret
Bret Fisher
Container pro. DevOps advisor.
Thanks for considering my course. I'm a DevOps, Docker, and Kubernetes trainer, consultant, speaker, and Open Source volunteer. For 25+ years I have built and operated distributed systems.
Since 2017, my courses, live workshops, and conference talks on containers and DevOps have reached more than 350,000 people worldwide. The first course I made was a Docker course on Udemy and it quickly grew to be #1 in the topic. In total, I've published four large courses, two of which continue to hold the position of Best Seller courses. Fun fact, even Docker, Inc. uses my Docker Mastery course to train their new-hires.
I'm also a practitioner. For the past 12 years, I have consulted and advised companies big and small, digging into DevOps projects and leading teams to "containerize" their apps and systems, improve their speed of deployment, resiliency, metrics, and awareness.
Efficiency and effectiveness are pet peeves of mine, so it makes sense that I love the scope of automating workflows. Much of my focus with organizations over the last five years has been automating their container pipelines.
I've come to understand it's not enough to simply learn a tool, it's necessary to learn how multiple tools work together. In all this time teaching containers, I find one of the hardest parts is understanding the end-to-end workflow for getting software out of developer hands and into production servers.
I see firsthand the positive impact on team performance and service reliability that an automated software lifecycle can have.
I'm a Docker Captain, which is a "distinction that Docker awards select members of the community who are both experts in their field and are passionate about sharing their Docker knowledge with others." It's definitely an honor to be a Captain; currently there are only 66 in the world. I am also a Digital Ocean Navigator and a Traefik Ambassador. And, because I'm an Eagle Scout, I like to leave any DevOps platform I find better than I found it (a Scout motto)🤚.
I also host a weekly YouTube Live show and a podcast with Cloud Native experts.
This evolution from speaker, consultant, and instructor of self-paced online courses to cohort workshops is an exciting one for me. The small, highly engaged format of training can be quite effective for many people and I hope it will be for you too.
