Attending this course prepares individuals to take the SAFe® 5 DevOps exam in order to receive the SAFe DevOps Practitioner (SDP) certification.
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.
Traditionally, walls existed between Business, Development and Operations which led to much confusion. Building alignment is a critical goal of DevOps so that different groups within the organization have the same direction and real progress can be made.
Map your 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 your organization.
Companies need the ability to quickly validate what customers want and need. In the current environment, DevOps processes allow you to do this very thing whereas traditional practices do not.
