Today, Altoros announces the availability of the first-ever Cloud Foundry training platform. In addition to online tutorials, the program offers a real infrastructure where one can play with deployments and learn cloud-native development firsthand.

Three levels of expertise

A series of five-lesson courses are targeted at developers, operators, and DevOps engineers who use open-source Cloud Foundry. Users can choose from the following course levels:

basic

intermediate

advanced

“Whether you’re new to Cloud Foundry, have some experience with it, or already have substantial expertise, Altoros has developed a course to fit your needs,” said Kirill Grigorchuk, the Head of Cloud Foundry practice at Altoros, in making the announcement.

All of the courses are delivered through a web experience, with no required plug-ins or additional services. All one needs is some AWS infrastructure, either existing or created at the beginning of a course.

The training is targeted at developers, architects, and DevOps engineers dealing with Cloud Foundry as end users. It may also be useful to top-level technical managers as a tool for fostering digital transformation within enterprises. The main courses include:
