Introduction to Jenkins Pipeline on Kubernetes - Atlanta
Event Information
Description
About this course
This workshop will provide a basic understanding of how to create and manage Jenkins Pipelines for Kubernetes while leveraging developer-focused features of CloudBees Core (aka CloudBees Jenkins Enterprise).
The course consists of a brief conceptual presentation with follow-along workshop exercises that allow you to practice what you have learned. During this course, you’ll learn key best practices to build a Declarative Pipeline in Jenkins, utilize Kubernetes pod templates to run dynamic, ephemeral Jenkins agents and use the Jenkins Pipeline to build, test, and deploy a sample application to a Kubernetes cluster.
Course Objectives
After completing this training module, you should understand the following:
-
Create, analyze, and run a Declarative Pipeline in Jenkins
-
How to control the flow of execution in a Declarative Pipeline
-
Recommended practices to utilize Kubernetes for running ephemeral, dynamic agents
-
Design a Jenkins pipeline to build, test and deploy an application to Kubernetes cluster
-
Establish reusable Pipeline templates for enterprise scale using CloudBees Core

Approach
This short course teaches you how to create and run a Jenkins Declarative Pipeline on Kubernetes. Declarative Pipeline is a relatively recent addition to Jenkins Pipeline which presents a more simplified and opinionated syntax on top of the Pipeline sub-systems. You will design a Jenkins Pipeline from ground up to include all the tasks required to build, test, and deploy an application. The Pipeline will be defined as a ‘Jenkinsfile’, which is a text file that is saved to the source code repository alongside the source code for the application. The workshop ends with the attendees utilizing a Jenkins Pipeline template to build, test, and deploy a sample application to a Kubernetes cluster.
