By PRIYA MENDEZ, Isabella Trent, DARIUS KIMANI

Turn every commit into a production-ready release.

DevOps & CI/CD for Developers is the complete, language-neutral guide to automating, testing, and shipping software at scale with Docker, Kubernetes, and Jenkins. Written for hands-on engineers, this book walks you step by step from a single-service container to a fully observable, self-healing, multi-cluster deployment.

What You'll Master

DevOps Foundations - Version-controlled infrastructure, Git workflows, and trunk-based development that eliminate merge-day chaos.

Continuous Integration, Delivery & Deployment - Design resilient pipelines that compile, test, scan, and promote artifacts automatically.

Docker in Depth - Build minimal images, manage multi-stage builds, and secure secrets without bloating layers.

Kubernetes at Scale - Craft manifests, Helm charts, and operators that keep microservices responsive under peak load.

Jenkins Best Practices - Create declarative pipelines, parallelize stages, and integrate with GitHub Actions or GitLab.

Security & Compliance - Shift-left scanning, SBOM generation, and policy-as-code to meet ISO 27001 and SOC 2.

Observability - Centralized logging, distributed tracing, and automated rollbacks using Prometheus and Grafana.

Cost-Smart Cloud Deployments - Right-size clusters, leverage spot instances, and use horizontal pod autoscaling to control spend.

Hands-On Projects - Every chapter ends with a GitHub repo, pipeline YAML, and lab exercises to cement your skills.

Why This Book Becomes a Desk Staple
