For years now, Agile teams have been able to develop higher-quality software at a faster rate by utilizing techniques that help them respond to change. This works great in smaller organizations where individual teams can focus on individual pieces of software, but it can be hard to scale these benefits across a portfolio of products because different teams are focused solely on their own goals. This misalignment of team, program and portfolio is often the obstacle that keeps organizations from fully harnessing the power of Agile. Defining an overall organizational portfolio vision and aligning each team's goals can help you further enhance the value of Agile practices. Through Lean Software Development and Product Development Flow, this SAFe certification course will show you how to create longer programs, called Agile Release Trains, where groups of Agile teams work together to optimize quality and velocity to deliver even greater value for their stakeholders. The Scaled Agile Framework (or SAFe) is a guide to aligning Agile development throughout an organization. Most organizations focus their Agile development efforts at the team level, first starting with a pilot team and later transitioning individual teams one at a time. Unfortunately, this method fails to fully integrate each team's efforts with the larger stakeholder need. The Scaled Agile Framework gives you proven techniques to align these teams to work at the larger program level, and ultimately how to align multiple programs into a portfolio that maximizes shareholder value.

This 1-day course introduces the fundamentals of DevOps. It explains the key concepts that underpin DevOps and helps attendees to understand the benefits that a DevOps approach could have for their own organizations, and potential problems that should be addressed. The course includes discussion of people, process and technology aspects of DevOps, and provides practical suggestions of steps that attendees can take to start introducing DevOps.

In this introductory course learners use the ArcSight console and ArcSight Command Center user interfaces to monitor security events, configure ESM, and manage users and as well as ESM network intelligence resources. Using ArcSight ESM workflow, participants isolate, document, escalate, and resolve security incidents. The hands-on labs for this course use ESM version 6.11

" This five-day course starts with introducing the concepts and usage of the Database and Middleware Automation (DMA) software, continues with detailed use cases of DMA, and finally students learn to modify out-of-the-box (OOTB) flows. DMA is part of Cloud Automation solutions. Working with DMA 10.50 includes using the DMA UI and the DMA runtime engine to locate, run, monitor, author, and deploy automated workflows. A flow is a set of actions linked by decision-making logic to automate tasks. Other topics in the course include using Solution Packs for Microsoft SQL, Oracle, and JBoss. This course also covers creating custom workflows, using the Database and Middleware discovery process, doing compliance checks as well as using the Representational State Transfer (REST) API. The course consists of focused, task-oriented lectures, text, and a series of detailed hands-on labs to teach the course material to the student. The hands-on labs use version 10.50 of the software.

The Query Performance Tuning course provides an in-depth architectural review of the architecture of Vertica projections, and how they can be configured to provide optimal query performance. Upon successful completion of this course, you should be able to: •Optimize your database for your most commonly-run queries • Analyze your queries and your environment for potential performance bottlenecks • Tune your environment for query execution • Manually build and test advanced projection types

This hands-on workshop teaches your teams how to implement Continuous Integration techniques & practices to achieve better code quality, better maintenance, and speed to delivery. Effective CI practices, when combined with well-aligned IT teams, lay the foundation for mature Continuous Delivery environments and the many benefits associated with them – for your software, your IT shop, and your business. Technology: This class is designed to teach effective CI skills for teams who utilize either open-source toolsets or proprietary technology stacks such as Microsoft. This workshop features Microsoft Visual Studio and Jenkins CI as testbeds for your own hands-on continuous integration lab practice.

This one-day Administrator-level course provides the essential knowledge to enable participants to install and maintain ControlPoint (CP) software, including considerations for configuring and managing the ControlPoint technical environment, using the ControlPoint interface, policy and repository definition, and data analysis. Software Version CP 5.5

This three-day course introduces students to advanced concepts of flow development and usage of the Operations Orchestration (OO) software along with integration. OO is part of Micro Focus Cloud Automation solutions. This course introduces best practices related to content authoring, structuring, and promotion. The execution order internal to OO is explained in detail. This course further focuses on advanced topics including using scriptlets, using Representational State Transfer (REST) to interact with OO Central, using Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) to interact with web services and using semaphores. A number of topics dive deeper into the use of OO to automate tasks, such as creating PDFs and interfacing with Subversion (SVN) from within OO flows. A separate, full day topic discusses the use of CloudSlang, an open source, textual authoring tool that integrates with OO. The course consists of focused, task-oriented lectures, text, and a series of detailed hands-on labs to teach the course material to the student. The hands-on labs use version 10.7 as well as version 10.8.
