Cloud Ready Hackathon

Cloud Ready HackathonCLRHKFLFast LaneFL-CLRHK1.0Learning Outcomes This Hackathon encompasses the modern software development toolbox – from source control, across testing tools to continuous integration and deployment. Each engineer working with software needs to have experience with these to be successful in the modern, cloud-native world.Every attendee will build the following technical skills: <ul> <li>Fluency with the basic set of bash commands necessary to work in a Linux/Unix based environment</li><li>Experience with Git commands to be able to successfully participate in development teams, both from the command line and chosen IDE</li><li>Familiarity with software testing process, both the writing and executing tests</li><li>Experience with Docker (creating and running custom images, pushing images to private docker repository)</li><li>Experience with Kubernetes (running a cluster, deploying, running, and upgrading a microservice app)</li><li>Working knowledge of chosen CI/CD automation tool (either Jenkins or GitHub actions)</li></ul>Attendees will also explore the concepts of test-driven development, infrastructure as code, microservice architecture and service mesh. Cloud Ready Hackathon builds on the concept of learning-by-doing in a highly interactive environment. Solving the real world problem without being told directly what to do will enable attendees to apply acquired skills immediately on their jobChallenges The challenges are connected – each of them builds on top of the previous one. The attendees will be given a repo containing the source code of the demo application consisting of several microservices developed using node.js. This application will be used throughout the Bootcamp, and each challenge will present a piece of the puzzle towards the story of continuous delivery into the Kubernetes environment. Challenges are briefly described below: Challenge 1: Hello Linux <ul> <li>A lap around Linux basics (most common bash commands, grep, vi/vim, writing scripts)</li></ul>Challenge 2: To get or Git the code <ul> <li>Introduction to Git concept of source control. Tasks include cloning repos, committing, pushing, branching, etc.</li></ul>Challenge 3: Test, test, test… and then code <ul> <li>Implement Unit tests for the existing code with Jest.</li><li>Introducing Test-Driven Development. Implement new functionalities in a test-driven manner (first test, then code).</li><li>Create a code-coverage report using SonarQube.</li></ul>Challenge 4: Pack it and send it to the dock <ul> <li>Introduction to containers with Docker.</li><li>Creating Dockerfile, building images and pushing to Docker registry.</li></ul>Challenge 5: Let the orchestration begin! <ul> <li>Introduction to Kubernetes.</li><li>Creating the first cluster using Google Kubernetes Engine. Deploying first container images to Kubernetes cluster.</li></ul>Challenge 6: Let’s automate the packaging <ul> <li>Introduction to CI/CD tools. Creating the continuous integration pipeline with unit testing, branch protection, code-quality gates, and creating and pushing container images.</li><li>The attendee teams will be able to choose between Jenkins and GitHub Actions – whichever works for them</li></ul>Challenge 7: Putting it all together <ul> <li>Creating deployment pipeline for Continuous Delivery using Jenkins or GitHub Actions. Zero-downtime deployment using Helm.</li></ul>Challenge 8: Coding the infrastructure <ul> <li>Introduction to Terraform. Creating the infrastructure-as-code scripts for deploying the K8s and other services on GCP or Azure.</li></ul>Challenge 9: What’s up with my application? <ul> <li>Implementing monitoring solution leveraging Prometheus and Graphana. Deploying a “dirty” application and monitoring the status of the cluster.</li><li>Implementing resource limitations for containers.</li><li>Implementing alerting.</li></ul>Challenge 10: Now, let’s mesh it up! <ul> <li>Introduction of Istio as service mesh platform for Kubernetes. Implementing advanced microservices scenarios (advanced routing, retries with exponential backoff, circuit breaker, health checks, mutual TLS, …).</li><li>Canary deployment</li></ul>Learning Outcomes This Hackathon encompasses the modern software development toolbox – from source control, across testing tools to continuous integration and deployment.
