"This course truly paints the whole picture of DevOps. Fascinating and inspiring."
DEVOPS OVERVIEW
DevOps is the convergence of existing IT best practices from ITSM, Lean, Agile, and Scrum into a development and operations approach that supports automation and continuous delivery. Described as more of a mindset than a framework, DevOps aims to blur the lines between the existing IT siloes to create a more collaborative relationship between Dev and Ops allowing organizations to create greater business value with more streamlined processes, faster deployments, and more successful releases.
To guide IT practitioners on their DevOps journey, Pink Elephant offers a comprehensive DevOps portfolio of courses that provides an all-encompassing look at the DevOps framework and role-based certification courses, specific to the roles within DevOps.

- DevOps Essentials – This certification course, provides the foundational knowledge and a new and unique perspective of DevOps through the 'Full Stack' of culture, practices, and automation.
