Learning Outcomes

What you'll learn

→You will be able to containerize a multi-service application using multi-stage Dockerfiles that produce lean, security-conscious images ready for a production registry
→You will be able to write a GitHub Actions workflow that builds, tests, and publishes a Docker image using pinned action versions, environment secrets, and structured artifact management
→You will be able to design and implement an environment promotion strategy that moves a container image from dev through staging to production with explicit approval gates and rollback capability
→You will be able to diagnose and recover a broken CI/CD pipeline from real failure patterns — including secret misconfiguration, image tag drift, and runner environment mismatches — without escalating to a senior engineer
→You will be able to present and defend every architectural decision in your pipeline to a technical lead, including why each stage is sequenced the way it is and what the failure mode of each job is

The day after you finish

The day after completing this course, you will open a pull request against your team's repository that contains a working multi-stage Dockerfile, a GitHub Actions workflow covering build, test, and deploy, and a written explanation of every environment and secret decision — and you will be able to answer your tech lead's follow-up questions in the review.

Who this is for

  • Mid-level developers (3-7 years) handed a DevOps mandate who can write code but have never owned a deployment pipeline end-to-end
  • Sysadmins and infrastructure engineers who manage servers confidently but want to move CI/CD ownership in-house rather than waiting on a dedicated DevOps team
  • Backend engineers on small teams where there is no dedicated DevOps engineer and the pipeline is someone's side responsibility

Prerequisites

  • Comfortable running commands in a Linux or macOS terminal — you have used SSH, set environment variables, and read log output to diagnose a problem
  • You have pushed code to a GitHub repository and understand branches, pull requests, and merge workflows at a working level
  • You have managed or deployed at least one server-based application — you know what a process, a port, and a restart looks like in practice

Capstone Project

Ship It: End-to-End Pipeline Ownership on a Multi-Service Codebase

Using the course's multi-service reference application — a backend API, a frontend service, and a shared database migration layer — you will produce a complete, deployable CI/CD system: multi-stage Dockerfiles for each service, a GitHub Actions pipeline with separate build, test, security-scan, and deploy jobs, environment promotion from dev to staging to production with a manual approval gate on the production deploy, secrets managed via GitHub Environments, Slack or webhook failure notifications, and a one-page Architecture Decision Record that explains the pipeline topology and documents two failure modes you deliberately triggered and recovered from during testing.

What you'll deliver

A GitHub repository containing: (1) multi-stage Dockerfiles for all three services, (2) a .github/workflows directory with at minimum a CI workflow and a CD workflow using reusable workflow composition, (3) GitHub Environment configuration screenshots or exported YAML showing secrets and protection rules, (4) a passing pipeline run linked by URL, and (5) a Architecture Decision Record in Markdown covering topology rationale and two documented incident recoveries
