DevOps Mastery: Jenkins, Kubernetes, Docker & ArgoCD - 2026

This course provides a comprehensive, hands-on understanding of DevOps using Jenkins Pipeline jobs with Groovy DSL, covering real-world implementations of end-to-end CI/CD pipelines.

You will learn core Jenkins concepts in depth, including:

• Jenkins Pipelines (Declarative & Scripted)

• Master–Agent (Master–Slave) architecture

• Deploy terraform using Jenkins

• Jenkins security best practices

• Tool integrations and plugin management

• Ansible integration with Jenkins

The course walks you through building production-grade CI pipelines, where you:

• Build Docker images using Jenkins pipelines

• Dynamically tag Docker images

• Push images to Docker Hub

• Integrate SonarQube for static code analysis and enforce quality gates

• Perform Docker image vulnerability scanning using Trivy

• Fail pipelines automatically based on code quality or security issues

Newly Added: Production-Ready Kubernetes CI/CD with GitOps

The newly added section takes the course to the next level, focusing on modern, production-grade Kubernetes CI/CD using GitOps principles.

In this section, you will:

• Design an end-to-end Kubernetes CI/CD architecture using Jenkins + Argo CD

• Use yq to programmatically update Kubernetes manifest files from Jenkins

• Commit and push Kubernetes manifest changes back to Git (GitOps workflow)

• Set up an AWS EKS cluster

• Install and configure Argo CD

• Deploy applications to Kubernetes using Argo CD GitOps-based deployments

Notifications & Integrations

You will also learn how to configure pipeline notifications by integrating Jenkins with:

• Email

• Slack
  using industry-standard Jenkins plugins.
