Course Overview

Updated in May 2025. This course now features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. Learn how to automate GitOps workflows and Kubernetes deployments through six hands-on DevOps projects in this practical Argo bootcamp. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to implement Blue/Green and Canary deployments, set up GitOps pipelines with ArgoCD, build CI workflows using Argo Workflows, trigger deployments with Argo Events, and monitor rollouts using Prometheus and Grafana. The course begins with a detailed overview of the Argo ecosystem, its architecture, and practical use cases. You’ll then set up a multi-node Kubernetes cluster using Docker and KIND to prepare for real-world, project-based exercises. From there, you’ll explore progressive delivery strategies using Argo Rollouts and Nginx for controlled traffic routing. In the final modules, you’ll configure GitOps automation with ArgoCD, orchestrate CI/CD pipelines using Argo Workflows and Image Updater, and automate deployments using Argo Events. The course concludes with a full-stack monitoring and analysis setup for intelligent, data-driven rollouts. This course is ideal for DevOps engineers, SREs, and cloud professionals with basic Kubernetes and Docker knowledge. It is best suited for intermediate learners.
