After almost 2 years, we are thrilled to announce the next level of our hugely successful GitOps certification. Level 3 – GitOps at Enterprise is now ready and you can enroll today at http://learning.codefresh.io. As a reminder, enrolling in any course of the certification also gives you access to our exclusive GitOps Champions Discord community.
Our GitOps certification contains the most popular Argo/GitOps courses and more than 24 thousand students have already enrolled. When we started creating the certification we had a very clear vision on how to structure the learning process with three separate courses with increasing difficulty.
These are:
- GitOps Fundamentals
- GitOps at Scale
- GitOps for Enterprise
Today we are completing the trilogy with the last course. If you also want to grab all three at once be sure not to miss our bundle offer.
About the Enterprise course
The third course – GitOps for the Enterprise builds upon the knowledge of the previous two and offers even more advanced scenarios for how to use Argo CD and Argo Rollouts in enterprise settings.
It contains modules for
- How to use Application Sets with different application definitions
- How to use the new multi-source feature of Argo CD
- How Helm value hierarchies work
- How to create temporary/preview environments with the Pull Request generator
- How to use Argo CD and vCluster together
- How to use External secrets instead of storing them in Git (as was shown in the level 1 course)
- How to create Application Dependencies
- How finalizers work and why they need to be used when migrating applications between Argo CD instances
- How Argo CD RBAC works in a multi-tenant Kubernetes cluster
In addition, the course also contains several advanced scenarios for Progressive Delivery with Argo Rollouts to extend the knowledge of Level 1. These include
- How to do progressive delivery for multiple applications at the same time (e.g. backend and front-end)
- How to use Argo Rollouts with services that use queues and/or databases
- How to perform rollbacks that also cover configuration (i.e. configmaps) and not just container tags
Use Argo CD with just your browser
Like the previous 2 courses, the highlight feature is the worklabs. For each module, you can start a real Kubernetes cluster right in your browser and follow the instructions for the respective exercise.
This means that you can pass the certification with a simple laptop as nothing is running locally. If you were ever frustrated with the lengthy installation process of a tutorial, then this course is for you!
It is also important to note that in some worklabs you will work in a multi-cluster setup. Again, this is transparent to you. You will see additional tabs in your browser for the extra Kubernetes clusters, but there is no additional requirement on your end. It just works!
Getting your GitOps certificate
At the end of the course, you need to answer multiple-choice questions that test your understanding of all the topics covered.
If successful, then you will get a certificate for the completion and a new Credly badge for your Credly account. Notice that the questions assume you have already completed the previous courses as well.
