DevOps Engineer Training in Pretoria

Some of the projects that are a part of this DevOps Engineer Training in Pretoria include –

Project 1 Scenario:

A media company wants to create a website where users can upload their photographs, including captions and titles. You need to create thumbnails from photographs so multiple images can be displayed on the index pages. Customers should also be able to order prints on T-shirts, mugs, and other items. You need to design, implement, and deploy part of this system.

The goal for the DevOps engineer training in Pretoria project is designing and implementing the project's integration and business tiers. In the final system, image files and thumbnails should be stored in a file system that’s accessible to the web server.

Project goals:

• Set up a MySQL database in a Docker container
• Design a database table structure for the data
• Write an SQL script to create the table and enter some sample data
• Create the table in the database
• Create a Java entity object and map it to the database table
• Create a DAO and its implementation
• Create a Junit test case and write integration tests

The deliverables are:

• SQL script
• Entity object code
• Hibernate configuration file
• DAO and implementation code
• Junit test case

Project 2 Scenario:

A library has a huge CD collection that must be cataloged. It needs to store the relevant information in a database and come equipped with a web front end. You must design, implement and deploy a part of this system. The project objective is to produce a web application that can implement the catalog. Each CD requires the information:

• Title
• Artist(s)
• Year of release
• Number of tracks
• Total playing time

Each CD must also have a list of tracks with the following information:

• Title
• Author(s)
• Playing time

Goals of the project:

You start off the project with the code and instructions for exercise 8.7. Acquire a copy of the DevOps project from lesson 8, and change the file names from Monitor to Library. You only need to produce the web’s front end. The data manager can produce a hard-coded list of CDs instead of extracting them from the database.

The deliverables are:

• The data manager Java file
• The library controller Java file
• The JSP which displays the CD list
• A screenshot of the web page showing the list of CDs

Project 3 Scenario:

You must be able to convert an integer into words, like, for example, the number 57 needs to be converted into “fifty-seven”. The project’s objective in this DevOps Engineer course in Pretoria is to create a method that converts the numbers 1 through 999 into words. If you have time, extend the numerical range beyond, but not exceeding 2 billion. Use Test Driven Development (TDD) to develop the method. Additionally, you need a standalone application that can read a keyboard number and prints the value either as words or the term "invalid number." The program should exit if the user enters 0.

The application must be packaged as an executable jar file using Ant.

 Goals of the project:

• Clone the repository and install Ant.
• Git clone https://github.com/simplilearn-devops/devops-project-3
• Curl -O http://apache.mindstudios.com//ant/binaries/apache-ant-1.10.0-bin.zip
• Unzip apache-ant-1.10.0-bin.zip
• Ins apache-ant-1.10.0 ant
• Start the VNC server
• On your local machine connect to the VNC server on port 5901
• Open the Numbers project in Eclipse
• Add the jar files in lib to the classpath
• Develop the numbers to words application using TDD
• Implement the main application to read numbers from the keyboard and print out the values
• On the server navigate to the Numbers project
• Run ant to build the project. The build will fail if the unit tests fail.
• ~/ant/bin/ant dist
• The results of the unit tests are in the report directory which got created
• Run the application and try it out
• java –j Numbers.jar

The deliverables are:

• The unit test java file
• The number of words Java file
• The main application Java file
• The test results file from the report directory
• A screenshot of the application output after running it with a representative set of numbers

Project 4 Scenario:

You are tasked with putting a few downloadable materials into Amazon S3 so your company’s customers around the world can access them.

Unfortunately, a month later, during a crucial, huge marketing campaign, the marketing team discovers that S3's costs are unacceptable, and asks you to research and implement a less pricey means of file distribution.

Goals of the Project:

• Create an S3 bucket
• Set its access permissions to allow all anonymous users to download the files from it
• Upload sample files to an S3 bucket
• Create a CloudFront distribution using an S3 bucket as its origin
• Verify that the files are accessible

Project 5 Scenario:

Currently, Oscrop Corporation’s public-facing web application runs on an IIS web server located at the company’s chosen ISP. But Oscrop wants to migrate this web app over to Azure. As a result, you need to test the web app’s functionality by creating a test Oscrop web app. An internal team will supply you with a test web app for you to deploy. You have to be sure they have the ability to stage any changes to the test web application before deploying changes to the public-facing website.

Oscrop’s operations team currently uses a Microsoft SQL Server database to store the web app’s back-end data on the company’s servers. You need to investigate the possibility of using an Azure SQL Database to host this database.

The operations team is also interested in monitoring how the database performs in Azure.

Goals of the Project:

• Create a new web app
• Deploy a web app
• Manage web apps
• Create an Azure SQL Database
• Configure server firewall rules
• Use SQL Server Management Studio
• View database metrics
