Microservice Architect Add-on

Have you completed any other SOACP course from our selection? Do you want to move from SOA to Microservices? If so, this upgrade kit will allow you to extend your knowledge without having to repeat the first two modules.

Do you understand Microservices enough to design and deliver them with confidence? Do you understand the concept behind the approach? This course is vendor neutral and the learnings apply to the overall intent, approach and principles so you can use any technology to deliver and manage Microservices.

Microservices require a dedicated design approach and design patterns. In this course you’ll learn what MIcroservices are and what the proper approach is to design, build and operate them. You can also take the on-line exam to get a Digital Badge to show your expertise in this field.

Course contents: 3 Modules

Module 9: Fundamental Microservice Architecure & Containerization
Module 10: Advanced Microservice Architecure & Containerization
Module 11: Microservice Architecure & Containerization Lab

The course outline is provided in the Details tab, you can also download a pdf version here.

SOA Analyst (with Microservices) Add-on

Have you completed Mudles 1 & 3 from any other SOACP course from our selection? If so, this upgrade kit will allow you to extend your knowledge without having to repeat those two modules.

Designing a well functioning Service Oriented environment starts with the analysis. While SOA and Service Orientation have been around for a long time, failures in analysing the current environment and the business needs leads to failure in project delivery. Unfortunately many companies have implemented disfunctional JBOWS (just a bunch of web services) and have called this SOA.

In this "upgrade" course you'll learn how to analyse the systems and the requirements, how to break these down into services and microservices and design a proper Service Oriented Solution. You can also take the on-line exam to get a Digital Badge to show your expertise in this field

Course contents: 3 Modules

Module 4: Fundamental SOA Analysis & Modeling with Services & Microservices
Module 5: Advanced SOA Analysis & Modeling with Services & Microservices
Module 6: SOA Analysis & Modeling Lab

Intended for

Solution Architects, Enterprise Architects, Integration Architects, IT Professionals, anyone that wants to get a real understanding of SOA, Service Orientation and Microservices.
