Hopper Automated Infrastructure Webinar

Container usage continues to climb, and Kubernetes is available to run pretty much anywhere. Using containers locally for development is straightforward enough for most but shifting those environments to a cloud provider or other managed cluster is still beyond the reach for many. Aside from the typical tools used for CI/CD, security, and monitoring, the cluster requires its own infrastructure, or the ability to properly use the managed offerings available, to support multiple teams. Hopper accelerates the creation and availability of a shared Kubernetes environment that already includes the tools needed to successfully develop, test, deploy, and monitor application workloads. During this webinar, we will demonstrate one implementation of Hopper by creating an OpenShift cluster, complete with CI/CD and monitoring tools, ready to use in under an hour.

Hopper DevSecOps Deep Dive Webinar

Building applications locally with containers is a great way to try things in a low-risk environment using tools that fit the tech stack being used. Moving these workloads to a more robust, shared environment doesn't need to be challenging. Hopper provides out-of-the-box application development and deployment support using already familiar tools, and it includes more tools for security and monitoring to enhance operational efficiency. Don't skip over CI/CD - let Hopper provide the tools needed to hit the ground running. Join us on this webinar to see an example of application development and containerized deployment with CI/CD and monitoring, all inside Hopper.
