Kubernetes Cluster Management and CI/CD with Jenkins X

Modern cloud-native development demands fast, reliable, and automated pipelines. Managing Kubernetes clusters manually and configuring continuous integration can slow your team down, but Jenkins X simplifies this by bringing automated CI/CD directly to your cloud infrastructure. This course guides you through the foundational concepts of container orchestration and automated delivery, helping you build a robust pipeline from scratch. You will transition from manual deployments to fully automated, GitOps-driven workflows. By understanding how cluster automation works, you will be able to confidently deploy, scale, and manage applications in cloud environments. What you'll learn: - Understand the core architecture of Kubernetes and Jenkins X integration - Configure secure Kubernetes clusters optimized for automated deployments - Implement GitOps workflows to manage environment changes through code repositories - Set up serverless deployment patterns to optimize resource usage and reduce costs - Import existing applications into automated CI/CD pipelines for continuous delivery - Apply modern observability and monitoring practices to track cluster health Starting with essential cloud-native terminology and basic cluster concepts, this course walks you through the step-by-step process of environment setup, application importing, and automated pipeline configuration. You will study practical, text-based examples and configuration files designed to build your skills progressively. This course is designed for beginner cloud engineers, developers, and DevOps enthusiasts who want to learn cluster automation. No prior experience with Kubernetes or Jenkins X is required, though basic familiarity with command-line interfaces is helpful.
