Download Outline

To give students a sound start, they are introduced to a broad and robust understanding of computer science and programming which will help them think algorithmic-ally and solve problems efficiently. This will also, give them the overview of computer hardware, software, operating system and how to navigate through the network infrastructure.

As knowledge of database is one of the important skills for any programmer, irrespective of technology, framework and domain, in the module you will learn how to create SQL queries and different types of joints. You will also learn different database types and its functionality which will enhance your data analytics skills with real -world data science exercises.

According to the TIOBE Index, Python is the most popular programming language in the field of software development and analytics. In this module you will learn the fundamental programming structures and how to use OOP features like encapsulation, inheritance, interfaces, overloading, overriding and Polymorphism. In the end you will have a solid grip of Python concepts from the basics to more in-depth understanding of its logic.

This course will give you the basic background, terminology and fundamental concepts that you need to understand in order to build a full stack web and enterprise application. This program will make you familiar with technologies involved in a web application, starting with the user interface and development. Unterstanding Bootstrap will help you to build dynamic web pages using JavaScript and jQuery. Overall the module will prepare you to take up developer roles in top notch enterprises.

In this module you will continually refine a fully functional full-stack web application as we progress to the back-end aspect of development. By using the most demanding programming language Phyton, you will be able to Develop framework-based applications for database interaction such as MVC - e.g. Django | persistence - e.g. | Testing - e.g.

In this module you will be exposed to the advanced programming techniques such as - Microservices, loosely coupled deployable architecture meant for small & medium businesses, Webservices(REST API)to exchange data between systems.During the development phase you will learn to solve recurring software issues by applying Design patterns & Design principles.

Understand DevOps trends like serverless computing, Machine learning, FaaS, DevOps Roles like Release manager, Automation Architect, Principles & Practices, Version Controlling using Remote repositories (Git, Bitbucket) Agile Methodology. In the end, you will have the overall knowledge of various methodologies and tools an organization can adopt for DevOps best practise and principles

This will help you understand the Automation process by selecting a Test Tool to, define the scope, plan and execute through Continuous Integration(using Jenkins). After this you will follow through with Continuous Delivery(Principles of CD, Leading CD practices)with Selenium.

Here you will learn to manage Containers that can be managed like applications, which can control processes, managed by the host operating system’s - kernel. This is managed through Containerization with the help of Docker Ecosystem & Networking Change - Release automation.

You will learn to monitor the performance, capacity, and maintenance of Linux and Windows applications across multiple server spaces and domains. This course will also help you to get hands on with remote offices, and the cloud Infrastructure through Virtual environment installation/Configuration management(using Ansible) Cloud Computing(DevOps & Cloud - Google Cloud/Microsoft Azure/AWS) Continuous Monitoring of the systems(using Nagios)
