Gitea is a lightweight, open-source solution for self-hosted Git services, offering repository management, code review capabilities, issue tracking, and CI/CD integration. It has emerged as a preferred alternative to GitHub and GitLab.com for teams seeking full control over their source code, free from third-party terms of service or export limitations.

GitLab Self-Managed represents the on-premises deployment of GitLab's comprehensive DevSecOps platform, encompassing source code management, CI/CD, container registry, security scanning, and monitoring capabilities. It serves as the benchmark for organisations seeking the full suite of GitLab features without reliance on SaaS models or permitting data to exit their internal network.

This instructor-led, live training in Portugal (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 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 capable of identifying vendor lock-in risks, designing portable architectures, implementing data sovereignty controls, and leveraging cloud-agnostic tools.

This instructor-led, live training in Portugal (online or onsite) is aimed at network engineers and infrastructure professionals who wish to use 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 (online or onsite) is designed for system administrators and infrastructure engineers who wish to design, deploy, and manage private OpenStack cloud infrastructure for 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 Portugal (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 Portugal (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 develop an operational plan for ongoing support.

Uptime Kuma is a user-friendly, self-hosted monitoring tool designed to track the availability of websites, services, and infrastructure. It offers an alternative to Pingdom, Datadog Synthetics, and UptimeRobot for teams that require monitoring data under their own control. This instructor-led live training (available online or onsite) targets beginner-to-intermediate SREs and DevOps engineers who wish to transition from cloud uptime monitoring to a self-hosted, sovereign status tracking platform using Uptime Kuma.

This instructor-led live training in Portugal (online or onsite) is targeted at security engineers and system administrators seeking 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 and secure the 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 that provides 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 straightforward yet robust continuous integration engine tailored specifically for self-hosted Git forges such as Gitea and Forgejo. It delivers a lightweight, Docker-native CI/CD experience, avoiding the complexity and licensing costs associated with enterprise CI platforms.

This instructor-led, live training in Portugal (online or onsite) is targeted at intermediate to advanced-level security professionals seeking 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 technologies, and monitor Zero Trust policies.
