Learning Outcomes

This module is an integrated block lecture. DevOps is an abbreviation for the interactions between Dev (development) and Ops (Operations). After completing the course, you will: - have a good understanding of the system side of DevOps, as well as an understanding of the main aspects of DevOps regarding culture and organization - be able to explain core concepts of DevOps, such as continuous deployment pipelines and microservice architectures - be able to use selected tools that are relevant for various DevOps processes

Content

By now, DevOps is becoming a widely adopted practice in industry, since it leads to shorter release cycles of software while achieving high software quality. DevOps consists of three interlocking strands - culture, organization, and software engineering. In this integrated block lecture we are going to focus on the software engineering aspects of implementation of DevOps principles. The others are important, and their main aspects will be covered, but they are not the focus of this module. The module is divided into two portions: theory and practice. The theory portion will be presented through short lectures on line and in class, as well as through portions of reading material. In the blocks, there will be discussions about the videos and reading material. The practical part involves a number of assignments, which are intended first to introduce you to the problems DevOps practices are aimed at solving and secondly to give you experience with common tools used to solve those problems. Topics covered in the module include: - introduction and overview - background: virtualization, containers, and cloud - deployment and continuous deployment pipelines - microservice architectures - post production - relevant tools

Description of Teaching and Learning Methods

This module is an integrated block lecture, and will be taught in 3-6 half or full-day blocks. Part of the integrated block lecture will take the form 'flipped classroom', i.e., students watch short lecture videos or read selected material before a block, and then these lectures will be discussed during the block. As such, active participation is expected and forms part of the grade.
