Program overview

About this program

Engineering teams now ship several times a day, and the people who make that safe are DevOps and cloud engineers. This 6-month programme takes you from the Linux command line to running containerised services on Kubernetes across AWS and Azure. You will build real pipelines, define infrastructure in Terraform, monitor what you ship, and apply AI to the parts of operations that used to eat entire afternoons — reading logs, triaging alerts and writing runbooks.
