The DevSecOps Practitioner course is intended as a follow-on to the DevSecOps Foundation course. The course builds on previous understanding to dive into the technical implementation. Each section highlights useful metrics as well as integrating new techniques into differing practices. These modules offer suggestions on how to overcome people, process, and technological issues to develop better DevSecOps outcomes. Beginning with a deeper dive into the surrounding concepts, the course then considers either using existing metrics or developing unique expressions suitable to each DevOps experience. The middle section looks at architecture transitions, building an infrastructure, and tuning the CI/CD pipeline to best effect. Finally, the course offers ways to get the best from your experimentation practices and considers where the future of DevSecOps may lead.
