SF – DevOps Foundation

DevOps is a cultural and professional movement that stresses communication, collaboration, integration and automation to improve the flow of work between software developers and IT professionals, delivering business value through software. The DevOps Institute (DOI) and PEOPLECERT are organising emerging DevOps practices into relevant trainings and certifications to provide common knowledge, specialised skills and recognised qualifications, which will ensure high quality DevOps talent worldwide.

Organisations should aim to stay ahead of their game and be competitive by releasing the latest updated products regularly, as new players enter the markets every day.

The DevOps Foundation course aims to impart basic understanding of important DevOps terminology so that all its participants are familiar with the language. It also accentuates the advantages of DevOps in supporting organisational success, be it in Singapore or overseas.

With the application of the latest developments from the community as well as real life examples from organisations such as ING Bank and Disney, learners can expect to not only equip themselves with relevant knowledge, but leverage on the interactive exercises to learn actively, ultimately bringing back impactful experiences that can add value to their organisations.

The DevOps training will include ‘The Three Ways’ principle from Gene Kim’s The Phoenix Project, together with the recent updates from the DevOps Institute Upskilling and State of DevOps reports.

The course, intended for a wide-ranging audience, will benefit both the business crowd and the technical crowd. While the former gain mastery over microservices and containers, the latter get to learn the significance of DevOps in cost reduction that comes with improved capacity as well as efficiency to support the organisation’s objectives.

Unique and exciting activities will allow learners to apply the newly learnt concepts, with sample templates and tools provided to use after the class.
