The Working with Spinnaker training course is designed to introduce students to the Spinnaker continuous delivery platform.
The course begins by covering the key foundations of Spinnaker's model for enabling typical application deployment and management scenarios, specifically when it comes to enabling easy and efficient ways of doing so in Cloud infrastructure. It will then dive further into Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines, and how Spinnaker thinks of and makes use of pipelines to enable its application deployment model and flow. Along the way, students will look closely at each of Spinnaker's key features for standard and at times, not-so-standard use-cases. The course concludes by delving into the administration of Spinnaker itself, including info on the installation processes as well as scaling and ensuring production availability, monitoring, and other related topics for administering and working with Spinnaker.
