Certified Agile DevOps Professional (CADOP)

Course Overview

DevOps is a cultural shift resulting from the agile software development methodology that promotes ideal collaboration between the operations team, testing and development teams. DevOps is a professional practice which strengthens the imperative relationship between IT operation professionals and software developers. The plan is to set up a domain for testing, building and deploying of software releases and infrastructure that frequently changes, however, more reliably with an automated process.

When an organisation starts thinking about cooperating IT operations with its developers, then it must adopt DevOps. In DevOps training, they can learn how to build, test, and deploy software. The combination of IT operations with software development allows the organisation to continually deliver quality value in the face of continually changing requirements.

Pearce Mayfield also offers a Certified DevOps Professional (CDOP) and Certified DevOps Security Professional (CDOSP) course which will help delegates to enhance their knowledge. Delegates will also learn how to effectively collaborate with process stakeholders, methodologies of agile, essential DevOps practices, and product and project backlog. By attending this Certified Agile DevOps Professional course, delegates will learn DevOps culture, terminology, objectives, principles, business benefits.
