Date: 1 May 2026 | Posted by: 0nelove

End-to-End DevSecOps Project: Build, Test in QA & Safely Promote to Production on AWS EKS
What you'll learn
✓ Build End-To-End CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions with branch-based promotion from QA to Production
✓ Design real-world branching strategy with feature, QA, and production flows aligned to CI/CD pipelines
✓ Implement DevSecOps practices including Gitleaks, Trivy, Checkov, SBOM, and SonarQube in real pipelines
✓ Configure secretless authentication to AWS using GitHub OIDC and securely access EKS without static credentials
✓ Integrate AWS Secrets Manager with Kubernetes using External Secrets Operator (ESO) and IRSA
✓ Deploy and manage stateful applications (MySQL) on Kubernetes using StatefulSets, Services, and persistent storage
✓ Design and deploy a production-grade AWS EKS architecture with ALB, Route 53, and ACM for secure HTTPS traffic routing
✓ Implement complete observability stack with Prometheus, Loki, Tempo, and Grafana for metrics, logs, and traces
✓ Purchase and configure a custom domain, generate SSL/TLS certificates using AWS ACM, and integrate secure HTTPS routing into your Kubernetes application via Rou
Requirements
● Basic understanding of what DevOps is and why it matters (no deep expertise needed)
● Comfortable running commands in a Linux terminal
Description
Most DevOps courses teach you concepts. This one makes you build things.
You'll work through a complete, production-grade DevSecOps project from scratch — the kind you can talk about in interviews and put on your resume. No toy examples. No hand-waving. Real pipelines, real infrastructure, real security.
Here's what you'll build
• End-to-end CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, with branch-based promotion from feature branches through QA to production
• A real branching strategy aligned to your pipeline — feature, QA, and production flows
• DevSecOps tooling embedded directly into your pipelines — Gitleaks, Trivy, Checkov, and SBOM scanning so security ships with your code
• Secretless AWS authentication via GitHub OIDC, with secure EKS access and no static credentials
• Secrets management using AWS Secrets Manager, External Secrets Operator, and IRSA
• Stateful workloads (MySQL) on Kubernetes using StatefulSets and persistent storage
• A production-grade AWS EKS architecture with ALB, Route 53, and ACM for HTTPS routing
• A full observability stack — Prometheus, Loki, Tempo, and Grafana — for metrics, logs, and traces
• Custom domain setup with SSL/TLS certificates via AWS ACM, wired into your Kubernetes app
By the end, you'll own a real, working DevSecOps environment on AWS and understand every layer of it.
This course is for beginners, developers transitioning into DevOps, and anyone who wants hands-on AWS and Kubernetes experience that reflects how production teams actually work. Basic Linux knowledge is all you need — everything else is taught inside.
Who this course is for
■ Beginners who want to learn DevOps the right way — by building a real project, not just watching slides
■ Developers and software engineers ready to transition into DevOps, platform, or cloud engineering roles
■ DevOps learners who want hands-on experience with AWS, Kubernetes, and CI/CD
■ Anyone serious about going from zero to production-level DevOps skills as fast as possible
