Objectives

  • Master the core principles and methodologies of GitOps, using Git as a single source of truth for infrastructure management.
  • Install and fine-tune FluxCD in a Kubernetes cluster to automate continuous deployment processes using declarative configurations.
  • Leverage FluxCD to automate and streamline application deployments across multiple environments through advanced GitOps practices.
  • Employ Git repositories effectively as the pivotal source for deploying and managing Kubernetes resources via FluxCD.
  • Implement and manage detailed kustomizations to efficiently handle Kubernetes resource configurations and synchronizations.
  • Utilize Flagger to deploy advanced progressive delivery strategies, including canary releases and feature flags, within Kubernetes.
  • Configure and manage robust canary deployment strategies using Flagger to ensure high availability and minimal user impact.
  • Enhance skills in monitoring, diagnosing, and resolving issues within FluxCD and Flagger deployments to maintain optimal system performance.


Pre Requisites

  1. Basic Knowledge of Kubernetes: Understanding Kubernetes fundamentals such as pods, deployments, services, and namespaces will help learners grasp course concepts more effectively.
  2. Familiarity with Git and Version Control: Since GitOps revolves around using Git as the single source of truth, proficiency in Git operations and workflows is crucial.
  3. Experience with Command Line Interfaces (CLI): Comfort with using CLI tools is important as FluxCD and Flagger are typically managed through command-line operations.
  4. Access to a Kubernetes Environment: Hands-on practice is essential for mastering FluxCD and Flagger, so access to a Kubernetes cluster (like Minikube, kind, or a cloud-based Kubernetes service) will be necessary.
  5. For Beginners: If you're new to Kubernetes or DevOps or GitOps, don't be discouraged! The course will start with foundational concepts, making it accessible to those willing to learn the basics on the go. Resources and guided tutorials will be provided to help you set up your environment and get up to speed with necessary prerequisites.


FAQ

  • Q. How long do I have access to the course materials?
    • A. You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.
  • Q. Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?
    • A. Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don't have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That's up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
