ArgoCD - KodeKloud

About the course

GitOps is a framework where the entire code delivery process is controlled via Git and can fully manage infrastructure and application definition’s as code.

It can be considered an extension of Infrastructure as Code (IaC). The fundamental concept is to use Git commits and pull requests to approve changes while managing resources on Kubernetes. GitOps is not limited to Kubernetes. In principle, GitOps can manage any infrastructure defined as code.

In this course, we will look into GitOps and ArgoCD. ArgoCD is a declarative GitOps tool designed for Kubernetes application deployment.

ArgoCD is one of the world’s most popular open-source GitOps tools today, and it automates the deployment of the desired applications in the specified Kubernetes target environments.

This course is for aspiring learners looking to integrate ArgoCD and GitOps principles within their CICD pipelines.

What you will learn in this course:

GitOps Methodology
DevOps vs GitOps Deployment Models.
What/Why/How ArgoCD?
ArgoCD Concepts, Features, Terminology.
Detailed ArgoCD Architecture & Core Components.
Reconciliation Loop Options.
Custom Application Health Checks.
Synchronization Strategies.
Imperative vs declarative approach.
User Management with RBAC.
Secret management using HashiCorp Vault & Sealed Secrets.
SSO with Okta.
Metrics with Prometheus, Grafana & Alertmanager.
Custom Slack Notification.

We will discuss each concept with a demo followed by practical hands-on exercises, provide simple scripts to set up your Kubernetes cluster, and have a GitHub repository with various code snippets throughout this course.

What our students say

I'm not a security specialist, but I have realized that the course explains very well every topic and you can use the labs in every lesson to practice. It's a hard certification but using this course I could learn every element step by step and test myself if I was ready using the exam simulators, and I was great because the simulators are very close to a real exam! using this course I got the certification in my first attempt!

Thank you so much Mumshad Mannambeth for the awesome course, I couldn't find better than yours. These courses are well designed with awesome practice labs and have more than the required content to learn and pass the Kubernetes exams. Not sure how you are managing them with these much of low cost.

... Thank you Mumshad Mannambeth and the team for your contribution to computer education. If all training programs were like yours, there won't be a movement called #womanintech....

Thanks KodeKloud for amazing Kodekloud Engineer site ! You are guys the future of IT education ! Special thanks for Mumshad Mannambeth for the best Kubernetes training and amazing KodeKloud labs.
