CI/CD Pipeline Automation with TeamCity and Octopus Deploy

Manual software deployment is slow, error-prone, and difficult to scale. Automating your build and release pipelines is the key to delivering high-quality software rapidly and reliably. This course guides you through establishing a robust continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) ecosystem using TeamCity for integration and Octopus Deploy for deployment. You will transition from understanding core DevOps terminology to configuring automated builds, managing release lifecycles, and implementing modern configuration-as-code practices entirely within your local environment. What you'll learn: - Understand the foundational principles of continuous integration and continuous delivery. - Configure TeamCity to automatically compile, test, and package your software applications. - Design deployment workflows and release lifecycles within Octopus Deploy. - Manage environments, variables, and deployment targets securely. - Apply configuration-as-code concepts to keep your pipeline definitions version-controlled and maintainable. - Implement advanced deployment strategies like multi-channel releases and rolling updates. You will start with fundamental DevOps concepts before moving step-by-step through setting up TeamCity and Octopus Deploy locally. The material guides you through building a pipeline from scratch, managing artifacts, and scaling your deployment architecture as your projects grow. This course is designed for aspiring DevOps engineers, software developers, and system administrators who are new to CI/CD tools and want a practical, step-by-step introduction. No prior experience with TeamCity or Octopus Deploy is required. Start building reliable, automated pipelines and streamline your software delivery process today.
