End-to-end GitOps with Argo CD Certificate (Levels 1 + 2) – Hands on workshop with Argo Maintainers Hosted by Codefresh

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 21 | 9:00am – 4:00pm | LOCATION: HYBRID EVENT

IN-PERSON REGISTRATION: SOLD OUT | VIRTUAL REGISTRATION: OPEN
The Ameswell Hotel
800 Moffett Boulevard
Mountain View 94043

“Great way to get started with GitOps and the fastest growing open-source projects enabling GitOps: Argo CD”

“I especially liked the live exercises. Both the UI and the CLI was available and used. And for true GitOps one had to use one’s own github repo (forked from Codefresh).”

“Kudos to Kostis Kapelonis, Hannah Seligson, and Codefresh for providing a free learning platform to the community.”

With over 2,000 certifications issued and countless requests for the next course of the series, Codefresh will host a GitOps Certification Workshop with hands-on labs at ArgoCon.

Codefresh’s flagship GitOps Fundamentals Course is the #1 most adopted and most trusted GitOps course available. And will be hosted LIVE for the very first time!

This workshop won’t just cover GitOps Fundamentals. Codefresh will also cover GitOps at Scale, the second course of the series that is not yet available to the public.

Codefresh’s GitOps Certification Program is trusted by companies like Red Hat, who incorporate this GitOps Course into their onboarding programs.

This workshop will be a hybrid workshop, meant for both in-person and virtual attendees, at no additional cost. It is important for us to make GitOps accessible to all.

Argo CD makes it easy to introduce GitOps inside any organization.

However, having an awesome continuous deployment tool doesn’t guarantee an awesome continuous deployment process. There are multiple questions that have to be answered before you ship the first real-life application to production. If your goal is to establish a scalable GitOps process for multiple teams, it is essential to get all required answers ahead of time and choose a battle-tested pattern that won’t fail your engineers in the most critical moment.

The Akuity team accumulated unique experience from building Argo CD as well as using it to empower DevOps in multiple organizations. Please join us to learn from experts how to implement best practices and solutions that are successfully used by numerous companies like Intuit, BlackRock, Nvidia, and many others.

During the event, we are going to cover the following topics:

  • How to effectively integrate Argo CD with your CI system
  • How to automate release promotion
  • How to deliver secrets without compromising security and developer experience
  • How to automate Argo CD access settings configuration and establish self-service multi-tenancy

You will have a chance to learn from experts as well as practice what they preach and get real hands-on experience. After successfully finishing this workshop, every attendee will receive an Advanced GitOps with Argo CD certificate and credentials.

How to Register:
Pre-registration is required. To register for the Advanced GitOps Certification – Hands-on Workshop hosted by Akuity, add it on during your ArgoCon 2022 registration.

Participants will need only git and a text editor to edit YAML.

GitOps DevNation Hosted by Red Hat

Calling developers that want to understand the OpenShift approach to GitOps.

Having Git repositories as a single source of truth allows development teams to store the entire state of the cluster configuration in Git so that the trail of changes are visible and auditable. Argo CD is a declarative, GitOps continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes, fully supported by OpenShift and OpenShift GitOps. OpenShift GitOps follows the GitOps pattern of using Git repositories as the source of truth for defining the desired application state and automates the deployment of the desired application states in the specified target environments. Application deployments can track updates to branches, tags, or pinned to a specific version of manifests at a Git commit.

What you will learn:

  • The fundamentals of GitOps and Argo CD
  • How to install and managed Argo CD in Kubernetes via OpenShift GitOps
  • Deploying and sync the desired application deployment state
  • Use Kustomize with Argo CD
  • Use Sync Waves and Hooks with Argo CD

How to Register:
Pre-registration is required. To register for the GitOps DevNation hosted by Red Hat, add it on during your ArgoCon 2022 registration.

Join us to:

  • Learn about Adobe’s vision and journey towards IDP
  • Participate in a community discussion about building IDP with Argo and other open source projects

Registration fees for this workshop will be donated to the Dan Kohn Scholarship Fund.

Build Your Own Open-Source GitOps Delivery platform with Argo CD, Drone CI & LitmusChaos Hosted by Harness

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 21 | 1:00Pm – 5:00pm | HYBRID EVENT

IN-PERSON REGISTRATION: OPEN | VIRTUAL REGISTRATION: SOLD OUT
Harness Mountain View Office (Located on the top floor)
444 Castro Street
Mountain View, CA 94041

In this 3-hour workshop you’ll learn how to set up, configure and run a full-stack, open-source GitOps delivery platform including continuous integration with Drone CI, continuous delivery with Argo CD, and chaos engineering with LitmusChaos. You will be provided with a preconfigured stack with Gitea and Nexus Docker Registry, but the workshop is intended to work with any Git repository (GitHub/GitLab) and container registry (Harbor, etc.). Also included is the open-source tooling you’ll need to deploy and operate this stack afterwards.

Here is some of what you will learn in this workshop.

How to use:

  • Drone CI to declaratively build, test and publish images to a container registry.
  • Argo CD Image Updater to automatically update the container images in your Kubernetes workloads
  • LitmusChaos to run experiments on that environment to determine your application’s level of resilience.
  • Your repo to create an excellent Full-Stack GitOps experience for your developers

You’ll also receive access to a Slack Channel where we can continue working together.

Agenda:

12:00 Lunch & Setup (optional)

1:00 Introductions

1:15 Deploy Argo CD from Helm charts

1:45 Install “DRAG Stack” following the “App of Apps” pattern

2:05 Modify components of the DRAG Stack App of Apps and see them deployed

2:25 Making the registry available inside the cluster

3:00 Create a full-stack pipeline for apps managed by Argo CD following GitOps workflow

3:30 Implement Chaos Engineering with LitmusChaos

4:00 Continue discussion at Happy Hour (optional)

5:00 Stay for the Lightning Talks (optional)

We hope you will continue working with us to improve the DRAG Stack as an open-source project we can all learn from.
