Video description

This DevOps course provides a step-by-step journey through the essential tools and practices of modern software development and deployment. You'll start by mastering the fundamentals of version control with Git and GitHub, creating and managing repositories, and collaborating with teams. As you progress, you'll dive into cloud infrastructure setup using AWS and explore core DevOps tools like Maven and Jenkins to automate builds, tests, and deployments in real-world environments.

The course then shifts to advanced concepts, introducing containerization with Docker and orchestration with Kubernetes. Through practical labs, you'll learn how to build, deploy, and manage scalable applications using containers, making it easy to deploy applications across multiple environments. You'll also integrate powerful automation tools like Ansible for seamless infrastructure management.

Finally, you'll explore monitoring and performance management with Prometheus and Grafana. These tools will help you ensure the reliability and scalability of your applications in production environments. By the end of the course, you'll be ready to implement DevOps practices in any professional setting, equipped with the skills to automate workflows, optimize deployment, and manage complex environments.
