1/2 day - Getting Started with Jenkins X
Jenkins has long been the definitive open source tool for creating continuous delivery pipelines. With the advent of Jenkins 2.0, users can code pipelines with a rich DSL, create resilient and restartable pipelines, easily interface with GitHub, and leverage integrated support for Docker containerization. Beyond that, Jenkins can be combined with key tools like Helm, Prow, and Skaffold to create Jenkins X—a powerful new interface and chaining of tools that can automatically create and deploy continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines into any environment running a Kubernetes cluster. Jenkins X also provides ready-made environments for multiple types of development work, including for Go and other languages.
Join expert Brent Laster for a deep dive into Jenkins X. You’ll learn what Jenkins X is and how to use it to push code easily and quickly and have it go through a consistent and reliable CI/CD pipeline customized for your organization—a pipeline that uses industry-standard technologies and can run in any environment, whether in the cloud or on-premises.
By the end of this live, hands-on, online course, you’ll understand:
What Jenkins X is, why it exists, and its overall workflow
How Jenkins X automates working with Kubernetes
How Jenkins handles the creation of and workflow for CI/CD pipelines
Available quickstarts (languages, platforms) in Jenkins
Jenkins X standard environments and preview environments
And you’ll be able to:
Simply and easily create a fully functioning Kubernetes cluster using Jenkins X
Install Jenkins X on a cluster and automatically have a full CI/CD pipeline with staging and production environments
Use Jenkins X quickstarts to quickly create and develop applications
Create and use preview environments to test out changes before they’re promoted to production
Take an application from start to production in Jenkins X
