Summary To compete in a disruptive global market, every organization
needs to deliver valuable technology solutions at the speed of
business. This requires a shared DevOps mindset among all the people
needed to define, build, test, deploy, and release software-driven
systems — not just the engineers operating a CI/CD pipeline. The
two-day, interactive SAFe® DevOps course helps people across
technical, non-technical, and leadership roles work together to
optimize their value stream from end to end. Attendees will learn what
DevOps is, why it is important to every role, and design a continuous
delivery pipeline that is tailored to their business. Attendees work
in cross-functional teams to map their current state value stream from
concept to cash, identify major bottlenecks to flow, and build an
actionable implementation plan that will accelerate the benefits of
DevOps in their organization. Attendees will leave with the knowledge
they need to support and enable a successful DevOps initiative at
scale. The course also prepares attendees for the SAFe® DevOps
Practitioner (SDP) certification exam. Attending the class prepares
individuals to take the exam and become a certified SAFe® DevOps
Practitioner (SDP) Learning Goals After attending the class, attendees
should be able to: Explain how DevOps enables strategic business
objectives Apply a CALMR approach to DevOps to avoid automating broken
processes Understand how successful DevOps requires continuous
exploration, continuous integration, continuous deployment, and the
ability to release to end users on demand Incorporate continuous
testing and continuous security into the delivery pipeline Use value
stream mapping to measure flow and identify bottlenecks in the
end-to-end delivery process Select DevOps skills and tools
strategically for the fastest, most compelling results Prioritize
DevOps solutions and investments for greatest economic benefit Design
