About The Course
Many teams have asked us for prescriptive guidance on how to adopt Platform Engineering practices within their organization and make the leap from manual cloud management to:
- Automating deployments with Infrastructure as Code delivered as part of a CI/CD pipeline.
- Securing infrastructure by following best practices, enforcing policies, and centralizing secrets management.
- Managing resources at scale by enabling self-service and continuous monitoring
The course has three (3) modules, each with hands-on, on-demand workshops designed to teach you practical platform engineering best practices and examples. Demo code and slides are provided in each workshop video.
