Program Overview: What is DevOps Fundamentals?
DevOps Fundamentals is an entry-point program for engineers, testers, and operations staff adopting DevOps ways of working. It covers continuous integration, delivery and deployment pipelines, infrastructure as code, and the culture of shared ownership. Participants learn how high-performing teams ship software quickly and safely.
The program mixes concept sessions with guided practice. Learners set up build automation, create deployment pipelines, and manage infrastructure with code in sandbox environments. Instructors connect every technique to the team habits behind it: small batches, fast feedback, and blameless reviews. The program ends with a monitoring, observability, and release management capstone, where teams run a full release cycle and respond to a simulated incident.
Teams new to DevOps struggle the same way: dev and ops blame each other, releases are monthly ceremonies, and automation is a side project nobody owns. The program teaches fundamentals as team practices, not just tools, so collaboration becomes default. Silos shrink, releases speed up, and firefighting gives way to steady delivery.
The capstone runs the full loop: build, test, deploy, monitor, then a simulated incident that reveals whether the observability setup actually helps under pressure. Instructors watch how the team communicates during the incident, not just whether the pipeline stays green. Your people return with the whole cycle in their hands, from first commit to a calm, coordinated response.
The program is built for cross-functional delivery teams: developers, operations, QA, and platform engineers learn a shared vocabulary and shared workflows. Topics progress from DevOps culture and lifecycle thinking through hands-on CI/CD construction, IaC provisioning, and monitoring, ending in a capstone where each participant builds, deploys, instruments, and releases a service end to end. Content is tailored to your team's toolchain and delivery challenges, with instructor review at every lab checkpoint.

Establish Shared DevOps Practices Across the Complete Software Delivery Cycle
Edstellar introduces DevOps as a shared way of working, linking value stream analysis to Git, build automation, deployment, and infrastructure management. Guided sandbox exercises make each stage visible to development, testing, and operations colleagues. A complete release and simulated incident assess technical execution alongside the handoffs and communication that sustain delivery.
- Step 01
Consult
We discuss how development, testing, and operations currently hand off work, identifying delivery bottlenecks and the cohort's familiarity with repositories, automation, and release checks.
- Step 02
Plan
We begin with culture and value streams, then practice Git collaboration, continuous integration, staged deployment, infrastructure templates, and service monitoring within one release cycle.
- Step 03
Align
We bring foundational DevOps facilitation to mixed delivery roles, introducing unfamiliar tooling gradually and connecting technical exercises to shared ownership rather than specialist assumptions.
- Step 04
Customize
We adapt sample repositories, handoff maps, and deployment incidents to recognizable team situations while keeping first-time pipeline builders supported throughout the exercises.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants resolve merge conflicts, automate builds, remediate infrastructure drift, and respond to a simulated alert, receiving coaching on small changes and coordinated decisions.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We observe the capstone release and incident response, assessing working automation, useful monitoring, appropriate rollback decisions, and clear collaboration across delivery roles.
