Understanding the new IT World

CI/CD, DevOps, Tools

ExperTeach Networking Logo

IT is undergoing a huge upheaval that is taking place at a rapid pace. Tools are sprouting up like mushrooms and are quickly becoming an indispensable component of the IT landscape. Anyone who is not directly involved in this development will find it difficult to understand and categorize the many new technologies, their areas of application and the new terms associated with them. The aim of this training course is to make this new world comprehensible to everyone by explaining the most important terms and contexts. It describes the current technological changes, the drivers responsible for them and provides an overview of which techniques and tools are used for which purpose. Tools such as Ansible, Chef, Elastic Search, Git, GitHub, GitLab, Go, Grafana, Jenkins, Prometheus, Puppet, Ruby or Terraform can be categorized after the course and their intended use is known. Even if an ISP solution is used as an example, the findings can be applied equally to enterprise companies.

Classroom training

Do you prefer the classic training method? A course in one of our Training Centers, with a competent trainer and the direct exchange between all course participants? Then you should book one of our classroom training dates!

Hybrid training

Hybrid training means that online participants can additionally attend a classroom course. The dynamics of a real seminar are maintained, and the online participants are able to benefit from that. Online participants of a hybrid course use a collaboration platform, such as WebEx Training Center or Saba Meeting. To do this, a PC with browser and Internet access is required, as well as a headset and ideally a Web cam. In the seminar room, we use specially developed and customized audio- and video-technologies. This makes sure that the communication between all persons involved works in a convenient and fault-free way.

Online training

You wish to attend a course in online mode? We offer you online course dates for this course topic. To attend these seminars, you need to have a PC with Internet access (minimum data rate 1Mbps), a headset when working via VoIP and optionally a camera. For further information and technical recommendations, please refer to.

Tailor-made courses

You need a special course for your team? In addition to our standard offer, we will also support you in creating your customized courses, which precisely meet your individual demands. We will be glad to consult you and create an individual offer for you.
