Description

Are you ready to level up your DevOps skills and build a real-world DevOps project using modern tools and cloud-native best practices?In this hands-on course, you'll go beyond theory and walk through a complete end-to-end DevOps project — from provisioning infrastructure on AWS EKS to building a CI/CD pipeline with Argo CD, and implementing production-grade observability with Fluent Bit, Splunk, Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry.Whether you're aiming to become a DevOps engineer/SRE, learn Kubernetes the practical way, or showcase a solid DevOps portfolio project to land job interviews — this course will help you stand out. What You’ll BuildA fully deployed Ghost blog application on Kubernetes with persistent storage and GitOps-powered delivery.Fluent-bit logging pipeline: Ghost logs streamed via Fluent Bit, transformed, and visualized in Splunk.Live dashboards in Grafana using Prometheus and OpenTelemetry metrics.A CI/CD workflow powered by GitHub, Helm, and Argo CD.Realistic alerts sent to Slack — just like in production! Technologies You'll UseKubernetes (EKS) on AWSDocker, Helm, and GitHubArgoCD for GitOps-based deploymentsPrometheus, Grafana, and custom Grafana dashboardsSplunk, Fluent Bit, and OpenTelemetry for logging and observabilityGit for version control workflows By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:Set up and deploy Kubernetes apps using modern DevOps toolsDesign and automate CI/CD pipelines with Argo CDMonitor and troubleshoot microservices using observability best practicesDeploy real-time logging and metrics dashboardsConfidently speak to DevOps architecture and tools in interviewsThis course is ideal for aspiring DevOps Engineers, SREs, and developers looking to bridge the gap between theory and production-ready workflows.
