What you'll learn:
- Use Jenkins to perform Continuous Integration within your Software Development Lifecycle
- Install Jenkins using docker
- Configure Jenkins “The DevOps way”, using Docker, Jobs DSL and Jenkins Pipelines
- Use plugins to integrate Jenkins with popular development software
- Configure the authentication and authorization options to tighten security on your Jenkins UI
Jenkins is the most popular tool to do Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery of your software:
It’s free and open source
It has a strong community with thousands of plugins you can use
Jenkins is used in a lot of companies, from startups to enterprises
This course will teach you how to use Jenkins using the Jenkins DSL and Jenkins Pipelines (Jenkinsfile). It's a new way of using Jenkins, rather than using freestyle projects. I call it using Jenkins, the DevOps way! I'll explain you about infrastructure as code andautomation to make sureyou understand how Jenkins Pipelines fits within this new way of thinking.
I'll show you how to integrate Jenkins Pipelines with popular software tools, like:
Docker
GitHub /Bitbucket
JFrog Artifactory
SonarQube
Onelogin (Using SAML)
If you’re looking for a job in the DevOps space, Jenkins is a must have skill.
I explain in the course how to install Jenkins if you don't have an installed version yet. You'll need a Ubuntu 20.04.x VM or cloud instance to follow the installation procedure. In the demos I will be using DigitalOcean as a cloud provider, but you are free to use any provider or VM (VMWare/Virtualbox, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, etc). I'll be assisting you in the Q&Aif you have any problems setting up Jenkins.
