Continuous Delivery Ecosystem Foundation

For Agile to be successful there needs to be in place a robust process of continuous development and deployment that supports rollout of high quality products which are bug and defect free.

A successful continuous delivery architect should know how to set up a CI/CD pipeline in the organization, the tools and processes and engineering practices to deploy, and the cultural shift to be adopted to foster continuous delivery. Continuous Delivery Ecosystem Foundation(CDEF)℠ workshop and the subsequent certification supported by the DevOps Institute (DOI) helps participants validate their knowledge of setting up such CI/CD practices and meet organizational objectives, satisfy the demands of the market and beat the competition.

The benchmark of successful organizations today is the implementation of continuous integration and continuous delivery with the associated tools. The aim is to achieve fast delivery of high quality products that meet market demands while challenging the competition. This workshop and subsequent certification will help participants increase productivity and employee morale by having more activities performed by pipelines instead of humans. Teams can then focus on executing the company vision while pipelines do the execution.
