CI/CD & Release Engineering
Stop deploying on Fridays causing panic. Master the art of continuous integration, progressive delivery, and automated testing to deploy 100 times a day with zero downtime.
Mastered Technologies
You Will Build
Build a comprehensive, secure CI/CD pipeline from scratch that tests, scans, builds, and performs a Canary deployment of a microservice application.
