This module introduces students to the foundational concepts of DevOps through a practical, hands-on approach that integrates software development and IT operations. Students will gain practical applied experience in front-end deployment, back-end code management, and host optimisation, while learning to use automation tools such as Git, Docker, and Jenkins to establish continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) workflows. The module also examines the use of AI-powered tools to support predictive scaling and intelligent monitoring, as well as sustainable technology practices such as energy-efficient container orchestration and cloud-native deployment strategies.
