Automate Your Deployments on Kubernetes with GitHub Actions and Argo 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.

Rescue your team's confidence in production updates with workflows and GitOps

DevOps engineers who want to automate their testing and deployment workflows with GitHub

Build engineers who struggle with moving off legacy CI/CD tools to GitHub Actions

Software engineers who are sick of the lack of automation and deployment status in their software lifecycle

This course is for:

What's in it for you?

Building, testing, and deploying your apps to Kubernetes should be easier! Discover how GitHub Actions and Argo CD can get your time back.

Ship code faster and with greater visibility and reliability

You'll use real-world templates to start automated container builds, CVE scans, testing, linting, and more. Security best practices are also provided.

Advance your GitHub Actions experience and implement container lifecycle automation

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.

Discover how others are solving their DevOps and automation needs

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.

Customize the pieces in class to fit your requirements

Implement Argo CD for your own GitOps-based infrastructure-as-code design across multiple environments. Provide the team with the detailed deployment dashboard they've been looking for.

Achieve full control and awareness of your deployments with GitOps

Live workshops: slides, demos, and small group discussion.

Course schedule

Study GitHub Actions basics and jump in with Docker builds and application testing.

Workshop 1: GitHub Actions basics and build+test workflows

Further enhance your GitHub Actions workflows with linting, Kubernetes smoke-testing, CVE scanning, and temporary clusters.

Workshop 2: Advanced workflows for DevOps

Customize what you've learned for your own projects. No new content. This is focused time for implementing what you have learned. We'll be online together so I can answer your questions. This workshop is optional.

Co-working, week 1

Use infrastructure-as-code and Argo CD to implement GitOps best practices. This workshop will automate your app deployments to Kubernetes.

Workshop 3: Automate your app deployments to Kubernetes

GitHub Actions and Argo CD complement each other in providing an end-to-end workflow from code commit to production deploy. Round out the solution by understanding where humans should get involved and what should be automated. We will smooth out your pipelines based on your team’s make-up and requirements.

Workshop 4: Tie it all together

Customize what you've learned for your own projects. No new content. This is focused time for implementing what you have learned. We'll be online together so I can answer your questions. Show off your work. This workshop is optional.

Co-working, week 2
