DevOps Webinars

Description:Microservices architecture recommends creating multiple small services. When we use Docker and Kubernetes, we end up creating multiple small Docker images that are deployed to a Kubernetes cluster. In this session we’ll discuss how to deploy a microservices application that is composed of multiple Docker containers, and perform various operations such as upgrade, pause, and resume our deployment. We’ll also discuss how to make our application more resilient by scaling our deployment. Lastly, we’ll discuss how to troubleshoot our deployment by working with logs in Kubernetes.

Description: In this half-day session, you will learn how to use Apache Kafka and Confluent Platform to modernize your applications. In modern applications, real-time information is continuously generated by applications (publishers/producers) and routed to other applications (subscribers/consumers). Apache Kafka is an open source, distributed publish-subscribe messaging system. Apache Kafka has high-throughput and is built to scale-out in a distributed model on multiple servers. Apache Kafka persists messages on disk and can be used for batched consumption as well as real-time applications. In the session, you will also learn what is KSQL and how it is used as a streaming SQL engine for Apache Kafka.

WA2451 DevOps Training: DevOps Fundamentals

Description: Microservices is an architectural style that structures an application as a collection of loosely coupled services, which implement business capabilities. Apache Kafka can play a very important role in implementing Microservices Architecture. Kafka™ is used for building real-time data pipelines and streaming apps. It is horizontally scalable, fault-tolerant, fast, and runs in production in thousands of companies. Come and join us for a webinar where we will discuss how Apache Kafka fits in Microservices Architecture.

Description: Agile combined with DevOps enables application development and delivery teams to accelerate the pace of software engineering with quality. Together these technology patterns unify the organization and are the basis for efficient and effective application modernization. The common theme for both Agile and DevOps is Lean, which brings concepts like focusing on value, eliminating waste, and the principles of digital data supply chain to realize agility and velocity in delivery of products and services. This webinar reviews the adoption of Agile and DevOps, lessons learned, and benefits to your workstream, project, or organization.
