Overview/Description

This 21-video course examines the essential DevOps metrics that are used to evaluate successful implementation. Learners will watch demonstrations of how to work with Datadog and how to set up agents to collect metrics and events. You will first learn to integrate issue tracking tool with Datadog. Next, learn to install Grafana and CloudWatch as the data source to build dashboards. The course then demonstrates how to set up and work with New Relic to securely retrieve monitoring data from AWS account. Various ways can be utilized to get the performance visibility into existing applications; New Relic allows users to combine different capabilities to generate that intelligence. Other topics covered here include use of dashboards, logs, AWS Serverless, Trac, and issue tracking. You will learn to monitor performance of Node JS applications; define alert policies for incident management; and also to install and configure JIRA to build wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects.
