Overview
“Podman & Daemonless Containers” is designed for roles such as Developers and DevOps engineers and System administrators and operations teams. In 6 hours you work your way through Rootless-Container, Pods & podman generate kube and Buildah & Skopeo in a structured way – with plenty of practice and time for your questions.
DevOps connects development and operations through automation, short feedback loops and reproducible infrastructure. Containers, Kubernetes, infrastructure as code and CI/CD pipelines are its key tools. Our courses are aimed at teams that want to deliver software faster, more securely and more traceably. Each course lasts one day, takes place online or on site, and consists largely of exercises: you build images, write pipelines, define infrastructure as code and fix typical failures. A provided lab environment lets you start with hands-on work right away, without any preparation effort.
The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.
