Automating AWS Infrastructure with Terraform, CI/CD & K3s
Course Description
Automating AWS Infrastructure with Terraform, CI/CD & K3s is a hands-on training program designed to teach cloud engineers, DevOps professionals, and platform operators how to automate cloud deployments, build modern CI/CD workflows, and orchestrate lightweight Kubernetes clusters using K3s. This course brings together three high-impact skill areas—Infrastructure as Code (IaC), automation pipelines, and container orchestration—to help you build scalable, repeatable, production-ready cloud environments on AWS.
You’ll learn how to define infrastructure declaratively with Terraform, automate provisioning and updates, implement CI/CD pipelines to streamline deployments, and run highly efficient K3s Kubernetes clusters for containerized applications. Through real-world demonstrations and lab-based learning, you’ll gain the technical expertise needed to treat infrastructure as software, reduce manual workloads, and accelerate application delivery in cloud environments.
