In this course you will learn how to deploy scalable applications using DevOps techniques. Why DevOps? It is one of the most sought after skills in the IT industry. The average salary in the US is $105,000 per year (source: Glassdoor), up to an average of $146,000 in San Fransisco (source: Indeed).

The course is aimed at software engineers, database and system administrators that want to deliver software that is scalable, reliable, available, manageable and still cost effective. Other IT professionals can also take this course, but might have to do some extra research to understand some of the concepts.

You will learn how to improve your applications and databases by applying techniques to scale your software. I will explain how to scale your application using proven automation, configuration management, provisioning and deployment tools. I also cover newer tools like Docker, Kubernetes and Deis.

The course is very practical. There are 3 use cases I will be explaining in detail. All the code is available for you to reuse on Github. If you get stuck with the technology while trying, there is support available. I will answer your messages on the message boards and we have a Facebook group where you can post questions.
