Overview
The Argo Project by GitOps is a collection of software tools for operating Kubernetes. With its platform and features, users can implement CI/CD principles into their application development projects while executing version control and keeping the deployment process automated. The core components of the Argo Project include Argo CD, Workflows, Rollouts, and Events.
This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at developers and DevOps engineers who wish to familiarize themselves with Argo Project tools and maximize its functions for developing cloud-native applications.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Install and configure Argo CD along with Workflows, Rollouts, and Events.
- Understand how each core component and main functionality of the Argo Project works.
- Execute basic CI/CD implementations in Kubernetes using Argo Project tools and features.
- Automate the deployment of an application and efficiently manage its state throughout the process.
Format of the Course
- Interactive lecture and discussion.
- Lots of exercises and practice.
- Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
