Infrastructure as Code: Hands-On Deployment Workshop

🚨🚨🚨 IMPORTANT: Tickets available on Quicket 🚨🚨🚨

In this hands-on workshop, we’re getting straight into Infrastructure as Code — no fluff, no theory overload.
You’ll learn the fundamentals quickly, then we jump into actually deploying real infrastructure across the major cloud providers.
We’re talking real environments, real workflows, and the kind of setups you’d actually use outside of a demo.

You’ll see how to:

• Turn messy manual setups into clean, reusable code
• Spin up infrastructure in minutes instead of hours
• Build something that can actually scale (and not fall over on day two)

This is very much a learn by doing session. Expect to be typing, deploying, breaking things, fixing them, and learning fast.
We’ll keep the energy up with snacks, drinks, and a few prizes along the way — because what’s a proper build session without a bit of fun (and competition).

Whether you're just getting started or already deep in the game, you’ll walk away with something practical you can actually use.
Bring your laptop. We’re building.
