Udemy – CAPA Crash Course: All 4 Argo Projects in 1 Hour

Preparing for the CAPA (Certified Argo Project Associate) exam? This course covers all four Argo projects in about one hour, with real demos on a lab you can build yourself. The time spent on each tool follows the official exam weights: Argo Workflows 36%, Argo CD 34%, Argo Rollouts 18% and Argo Events 12%. You spend the most time where the most marks are.

What you will learn:

• Argo CD: GitOps principles, the Argo CD architecture, Application and AppProject, sync vs health, auto-sync, self-heal, prune, sync waves and hooks, Helm and Kustomize sources, app of apps, ApplicationSets and ignoreDifferences.
• Argo Workflows: the Workflow spec, template types, parameters, steps vs DAG, the depends field, artifacts in an S3-compatible repository, WorkflowTemplates, ClusterWorkflowTemplates, CronWorkflows, loops, parallelism and retries.
• Argo Rollouts: Rollout vs Deployment, canary steps, blue-green with active and preview Services, AnalysisTemplates, and an automatic rollback of a bad release.
• Argo Events: EventSource, EventBus, Sensor and Trigger, with a webhook that starts a Workflow only for production events.
• Every command you see was run for real on a lab with pinned versions: Kubernetes v1.37, Argo CD v3.5.3, Argo Workflows v4.1.4, Argo Rollouts v1.10.0 and Argo Events v1.9.11. You get the lab scripts, so one command builds the same environment on your machine.
