This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at cloud professionals who wish to design and implement multi-cloud architectures that avoid vendor lock-in and ensure data sovereignty.

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

This instructor-led, live training in Australia (online or onsite) is designed for network engineers and infrastructure professionals who wish to utilise SONiC and ONL to deploy and manage open network infrastructure on white-box switches.

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 (available online or onsite) is designed for system administrators and infrastructure engineers looking to design, deploy, and manage private OpenStack cloud infrastructure within enterprise environments.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to understand OpenStack architecture, deploy private cloud infrastructure, manage compute and storage resources, implement security with Keystone, and apply enterprise best practices.

This instructor-led live training in Australia (online or onsite) is aimed at 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 Australia (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level network and infrastructure professionals who wish to use 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, improve security and observability, and build an operational plan for ongoing support.

Uptime Kuma is a user-friendly, self-hosted monitoring solution that tracks the availability of websites, services, and infrastructure. It serves as an alternative to Pingdom, Datadog Synthetics, and UptimeRobot for teams seeking full control over their monitoring data. This instructor-led live training (available online or onsite) is designed for beginner-to-intermediate SREs and DevOps engineers who want to leverage Uptime Kuma to replace cloud-based uptime monitoring with a self-hosted, sovereign status tracking platform.

This instructor-led, live training in Australia (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 providing unified XDR and SIEM capabilities for threat detection, integrity monitoring, incident response, and compliance. It aggregates endpoint telemetry into a self-managed analysis engine, offering a credible alternative to Splunk Enterprise Security, Microsoft Sentinel, and other cloud-native SIEMs

Woodpecker CI is a streamlined yet robust continuous integration engine crafted specifically for self-hosted Git platforms such as Gitea and Forgejo. It delivers a lightweight, Docker-native CI/CD experience, sparing users the complexity and licensing costs associated with enterprise CI solutions.

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

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