Course Overview
Security and delivery speed are traded against each other in cloud infrastructure as code whether or not anyone says so. The documentation for as code is accurate only until the next release. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of the technology and systems delivery discipline rather than to abstract argument. The difficulty is not agreeing that cloud infrastructure as code matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. Applied research in technology and systems delivery consistently shows that early structure around the practice within technology and systems delivery reduces downstream rework. Participants finish able to explain as code to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. The programme converts cloud infrastructure as code from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for as code. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the technology and systems delivery capability that participants can repeat annually.
