Modern GitLab DevOps Handbook: Build, Automate, Secure, Deploy, and Scale Production-Ready DevOps Pipelines

By Rishu Raj

Modern GitLab DevOps Handbook is a practical guide to designing and operating modern DevOps delivery pipelines using GitLab and the tools that commonly surround it.

Starting with Git and GitLab fundamentals, the book progressively moves into CI/CD, GitLab Runners, automated testing, Docker, container registries, DevSecOps, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitOps, release engineering, monitoring, troubleshooting, and enterprise DevOps practices.

A continuous project, DevOpsHub, connects the concepts and demonstrates how a real application can move from source code to a production-style environment.

Inside, readers will explore:
