Uptime Kuma: Self-Hosted Monitoring Replacing Datadog and Pingdom Training Course

Gitea is a lightweight, open-source, self-hosted Git service that offers repository management, code review, issue tracking, and CI/CD integration. It has become an increasingly popular alternative to GitHub and GitLab.com for teams seeking full control over their source code without the constraints of third-party terms of service or export restrictions.

GitLab Self-Managed is the on-premises deployment of GitLab's complete DevSecOps platform, including source code management, CI/CD, container registry, security scanning, and monitoring. It is the gold standard for organizations that want the full GitLab feature set without SaaS dependency or data leaving their network.

This instructor-led, live training in Kenya (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate to advanced DevOps engineers and system administrators who wish to deploy and manage self-hosted Kubernetes clusters without cloud dependencies.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to: deploy production-ready Kubernetes clusters using kubeadm on bare-metal or virtual machines; configure high-availability control planes and etcd clusters; implement container networking and storage for self-managed environments; set up monitoring and observability using self-hosted solutions.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) targets cloud professionals who aim to design and implement multi-cloud architectures that prevent vendor lock-in and ensure data sovereignty.

By the conclusion of this training, participants will be able to identify risks related to vendor lock-in, design portable architectures, implement data sovereignty controls, and leverage cloud-agnostic tools effectively.

In this instructor-led, live training in Kenya (online or onsite), participants will learn how to use ONAP to automate networking services.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand, install and configure the various components in the ONAP ecosystem.
• Carry out real-time, policy-driven orchestration and automation of physical and virtual network functions.
• Design, create, orchestrate, and monitor VNFs, SDNs and other network services.
• Efficiently manage the entire networking lifecycle using a software-driven approach.
• Develop, deploy, and scale a network using the latest open source technologies and practices.

This instructor-led live training in Kenya (online or onsite) is tailored for network engineers and infrastructure professionals looking to deploy and manage open network infrastructure on white-box switches using SONiC and ONL.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to understand SONiC and ONL architecture, deploy open-source NOS on white-box hardware, configure networking features, and implement monitoring and automation.

This instructor-led live training (online or onsite) is targeted at system administrators and infrastructure engineers who aim to design, deploy, and manage private OpenStack cloud infrastructure for enterprise settings.

By the conclusion of this training, participants will gain an understanding of OpenStack architecture, learn to deploy private cloud infrastructure, manage compute and storage resources, implement security via Keystone, and apply enterprise best practices.

This instructor-led, live training in Kenya (online or onsite) targets intermediate-level network engineers and infrastructure administrators who wish to implement software-defined networks using open-source tools and technologies.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to design SDN architectures, implement Open vSwitch, configure FRRouting, deploy SDN controllers, and automate network management.

This instructor-led, live training in Kenya (online or onsite) is designed for intermediate-level network and infrastructure professionals who wish to utilise open-source routing, switching, Wi-Fi, and management tools to design, deploy, and operate a self-managed enterprise network.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to design an open-source enterprise network architecture, configure routing, switching, and wireless services, enhance security and observability, and establish an operational plan for ongoing support.

This instructor-led, live training in Kenya (online or onsite) is aimed at security engineers and system administrators who wish to deploy and manage enterprise-grade self-hosted VPN solutions using WireGuard and OpenVPN.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to deploy WireGuard and OpenVPN, design scalable architectures, integrate with identity systems, and monitor/secure VPN infrastructure.

OpenVPN and WireGuard are the two dominant open-source VPN protocols. Running your own VPN server ensures that no third-party provider can log traffic metadata, inject advertisements, or comply with foreign data requests. This training covers both protocols for different threat models and performance requirements.

Wazuh is an open-source security platform offering unified XDR and SIEM capabilities for threat detection, integrity monitoring, incident response, and compliance. It aggregates endpoint telemetry into a self-managed analysis engine, providing a viable alternative to Splunk Enterprise Security, Microsoft Sentinel, and other cloud-native SIEMs.

Woodpecker CI is a straightforward yet robust continuous integration engine tailored specifically for self-hosted Git repositories such as Gitea and Forgejo. It offers a lean, Docker-native CI/CD solution that eliminates the complexity and licensing costs associated with enterprise-grade CI platforms.

This instructor-led, live training in Kenya (online or onsite) targets intermediate to advanced-level security professionals wishing to implement Zero Trust Architecture using open-source tools and sovereign infrastructure.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to design Zero Trust architectures, deploy identity-aware proxies, implement dynamic authentication, secure microservices with service mesh, and monitor zero trust policies.
