Training: Apache Maven Build Management

The Apache Maven build tool has been successfully established in both commercial and open source Java projects for over a decade. Maven is therefore a central component of the automated CI/CD pipeline in DevOps processes.

The “Build Management with Apache Maven” training covers all the aspects required for successful build management in your own software development project. You will learn proven solutions that can be easily integrated into an existing CI/CD pipeline and thus improve overall performance.

The course is aimed at both developers with no prior experience who need to adapt and extend the Maven build logic in projects, as well as experienced build managers/DevOps who want to gain a deeper understanding of Maven. The training consists of several components that you can tailor to your individual needs during a free initial consultation. The duration of the course can vary from one day to five days depending on the modules you select.

The course is conducted entirely virtually/remotely and can also be booked individually for closed groups or individuals. If you’re interested in the course content, schedule a free consultation today. Each attendee receives a login with access to all paid articles for 12 months.
