• 2.  DevOps
  2m 51s
  In this video, you’ll learn more about the features of DevOps and its benefits. DevOps is a set of IT practices that aim to combine development, IT operations, and quality assurance into a single continuous set of processes. Speed is the key benefit of the implementation of DevOps. It enables IT to move at a higher velocity and allows for faster innovation and the ability to adapt to changing markets. FREE ACCESS
• 3.  DevOps and Agile
  4m 25s
  In this video, you’ll learn more about the benefits of using DevOps and Agile together. DevOps is a software development method, which focuses on communication, integration, and collaboration among IT professionals. It helps increase an organization's speed in delivering and deploying applications and services. Agile methodology is a software development method that emphasizes iterative, incremental, and evolutionary development. Agile development processes break the product into smaller pieces and then integrates them for final testing. FREE ACCESS
• 4.  Agile Development
  5m 46s
  In this video, you’ll learn more about the components and features of the Agile Development process. Agile is a term used to describe approaches to software development that emphasize incremental delivery, team collaboration, continual planning and learning, and efficient and dynamic processes. You’ll learn the Agile Manifesto is comprised of four foundational values and 12 supporting principles. FREE ACCESS
• 5.  Agile Life Cycle
  2m 55s
  In this video, you’ll learn the steps of the Agile Life Cycle. You’ll learn the Agile software development life cycle is comprised of iterations, called an iterative process. Each iteration is usually two to four weeks long and has a fixed completion time. Because it's time-bound, the scope of each iteration is only as broad as time allows. During each iteration, both customers and stakeholders provide feedback, to ensure the features meet their needs. FREE ACCESS
• 6.  Continuous Integration in Agile
  3m 14s
  In this video, you’ll learn the significance of continuous integration using the Agile process. You’ll learn that Continuous Integration in Agile restructures the software development and delivery cycle. It helps support numerous small changes as opposed to a few large changes. The Agile Release Train is a long-lived team of Agile that consists of a virtual organization, five to 12 teams. This organization plans, commits, and executes together. FREE ACCESS
• 7.  DevOps and the Cloud
  2m 38s
  In this video, you’ll learn how the Cloud can be used with DevOps. DevOps and cloud computing together are a powerhouse. They each offer great effectiveness and business image, but when integrated and aligned, they drive business objectives. They increase business benefits and support and impact business goals. Cloud DevOps help bring products to market faster, through faster access to development environments and streamlined developer processes. FREE ACCESS
• 8.  Continuous Integration Delivery and Deployment
  2m 19s
  In this video, you’ll compare continuous integration, continuous delivery, and continuous deployment and how they're related to each other. Modern software development moves fast and demands more from developers than ever. Continuous Integration Delivery and Deployment helps developers. It lays out practices to follow to get the code to deliver value faster and with more transparency. Developers who practice Continuous Integration merge their changes often back to the main branch as often as possible. FREE ACCESS
• 9.  Continuous Integration
  2m 48s
  In this video, you’ll learn the purpose of Continuous Integration and why it's important for software development. Continuous integration is a DevOps software development practice where developers regularly merge their code into a central repository. Continuous integration requires a cultural component where the team must learn how to integrate new code frequently. The key goals of continuous integration are to find and address bugs quicker to improve software quality.   FREE ACCESS
• 10.  Benefits of Continuous Integration
  2m 50s
  In this video, you’ll learn the benefits of using continuous integration. Continuous integration can help improve the development workflow efficiency and reduce the risk of development workflow errors. Continuous integration allows you to mitigate risk by enabling production parity. It allows everyone to deploy and test their work in an environment that's similar to production. It also mitigates risks by implementing automated quality assurance tasks. FREE ACCESS
• 11.  Cloud Scalability
  4m 24s
  In this video, you’ll learn scalability and methods for performance scaling, using autoscaling, horizontal scaling, vertical scaling, and cloud bursting. In cloud computing, scaling is a process of meeting the resource workload demands by adding or removing compute storage and network services. This is done to maintain availability and performance as utilization increases. You’ll learn there are four scenarios that illustrate when scaling to the cloud is good practice. FREE ACCESS
• 12.  Agile, DevOps, and the Cloud
  2m 10s
  In this video, you’ll learn about Agile, DevOps, and Cloud interaction. With Agile and DevOps, you have real-time development and deployment enabled by cloud technologies. This is transforming organizations by providing them with the ability to better respond to customer and market needs, while also being able to test innovative business ideas. You’ll see Agile accelerates innovation by enabling collaboration between business and IT and by enabling more frequent releases and supporting continuous integration. FREE ACCESS
• 13.  Agile Cloud Architecture
  4m 38s
  In this video, you’ll learn about the Agile Cloud Architecture environment. When leveraging cloud-based resources, you’ll see it's much easier to track costs of development resources and then make adjustments as needed. There are a number of steps required to establish and support an Agile cloud architecture environment. The process that works best includes defining your development requirements. Then, you’ll define the business case. Next, you’ll define what the return on investment is. FREE ACCESS
