Our first three DevOps Up-Skill programmes have seen 66 engineers come through the six sessions covering a range of DevOps-based topics.
With our Autumn programmes starting soon, here are a few questions to help shed some light on the programme and what it covers.
Which cloud providers does the programme cover?
The programme covers Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Azure.
What tech stack does the programme cover?
The cohort go through a lot of technical aspects. The following gives a flavour of the type of stack that people will work through and provision.
Are code examples provided?
Full code examples for all of the stack are provided along with documentation to work through for spinning up environments and operating them.
Does the programme cover organisational aspects as well as technical?
Absolutely! Although much of the previous mentioned work is technical, the programme starts with covering the organisational and enterprise impact that DevOps can have. Discussing aspects such as the three flows from the DevOps Handbook and Site Reliability considerations such as Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and Service Level Indicators (SLIs).
I've not got an engineering background, can I do the programme?
The programme does make certain assumptions on a person's skillset. Such as being familiar with Git version control and some programming experience. Whilst a particular programming language isn't mentioned, we have found that past experience with some form of coding is required for the programme.
