Private corporate batches delivered onsite across Delhi, or live online in IST (UTC+5:30) — taught by a practitioner who runs DevOps in production.
20 years across DevOps, SRE and Security · 10,000+ engineers trained · Trained teams at JPMorgan Chase, Verizon, Nokia and the World Bank
Principal DevOps Engineer & Architect
Rajesh teaches DevOps for engineers who deliver inside other people's environments: pipelines that can be rebuilt in a restricted estate, dependency and image mirroring where outbound access is blocked, security gates and evidence that satisfy an acceptance milestone, log retention and time synchronisation aligned to incident-reporting obligations, and scale rehearsal for consumer peaks. Delhi NCR batches are scheduled in IST across Gurugram, Noida and central offices, and every module is demonstrated live rather than described.
Twenty years across DevOps, SRE and Security, in principal and architect roles at PayPay, SoftwareAG, ServiceNow, JDA Software, Intuit, Adobe and others. He has trained engineers at JPMorgan Chase, Verizon, Nokia, the World Bank, VMware, Oracle, Mercedes-Benz and Airbus — more than 10,000 people personally. He teaches what he runs, not what he reads.
You are booked with a named engineer, and that is who turns up. Marketplaces and larger providers rotate whoever is free, so the person who sold you the agenda is rarely the person teaching it.
The same trainer is available for the next engagement, which matters when a team builds on what it learned last time.
Your batch is assigned a named trainer before it starts, and that is who teaches it. See the full faculty.
Engagements are matched on the tool, not the calendar. For DevOps that means a trainer who has run it in production — delivery inside procurement, restricted networks and consumer scale — pipelines that satisfy an acceptance milestone and a sale-day peak — rather than whoever is free that week. You are told who is teaching before you commit, and that person is on the discovery call that shapes the agenda.
Where a batch is large enough to need a second trainer, the pairing is declared up front. The lead trainer stays accountable for the syllabus and the assessment either way.

Onsite delivery across Delhi NCR runs at your own office, most often in Gurugram around Cyber City, Golf Course Road and Udyog Vihar, in Noida sectors 62 and 125 to 135, in Greater Noida, or in central Delhi around Nehru Place and Aerocity; travel within the region is included in the quote and anything beyond it is itemised. You provide the room, network access and a screen, and the trainer brings the lab, materials, assessment and certificates. Where the client estate is restricted, lab artefacts are mirrored in advance so the exercises work without outbound access. Live online delivery runs in IST (UTC+5:30). Batches run 8 to 30 engineers, are frequently split into two blocks around client milestones, and quotes are issued in INR with GST applied and purchase orders supported.
Every attendee leaves with recordings, slides, lab repositories and a completion certificate. You receive an attendance and assessment report. Invoicing supports PO and GST.
Talk to us about a private DevOps batchDevOps is the discipline of turning software delivery into one owned, automated flow instead of a chain of hand-offs between teams. Delhi and the wider National Capital Region apply that idea under two very different sets of constraints at once, often inside the same organisation.
On one side sits delivery under procurement: systems integrators, public-sector programmes and government-adjacent platforms where the work is defined by a tender, accepted against milestones, deployed into a restricted or empanelled environment, and eventually handed over to somebody else to run. Here DevOps has to produce more than working software — it has to produce a delivery chain that can be demonstrated, security-tested, documented and transferred, sometimes without direct internet access.
On the other side sits consumer scale: commerce, quick-commerce, travel, fintech and media platforms whose engineering is judged on how they behave during a sale event or a viral spike. Same practices, opposite emphasis — throughput, autoscaling, feature flags and rapid rollback.
What unites them in this region is that most engineers work across multiple client environments rather than one. So the durable skill is building delivery that is portable: pipelines, infrastructure code and runbooks that can be reproduced in an unfamiliar estate with unfamiliar constraints and a fixed deadline.
The National Capital Region concentrates two kinds of demand that rarely sit together elsewhere in India. Large systems integrators and technology consultancies staffed heavily around Noida and Gurugram deliver into client estates they do not own, while a dense cluster of consumer platforms — commerce, quick commerce, fintech, insurance and travel — runs its own high-traffic infrastructure a few kilometres away.
Both are hiring for automation, but for different reasons. Integrators need delivery that can be stood up quickly inside a client's constraints and handed over cleanly at the end of a contract. Consumer platforms need delivery that does not become the bottleneck when the marketing calendar decides that next Tuesday will carry a quarter of the month's revenue.
Regulatory pressure is rising underneath both. Directions on incident reporting timelines and log retention, plus data localisation expectations for financial and payment workloads, mean logging, time synchronisation and evidence retention are now engineering requirements with deadlines attached. Engineers who can satisfy those while still shipping frequently are genuinely scarce, and that is what NCR employers are competing over.
How procurement shapes engineering. Milestone acceptance and what it demands from the pipeline, deliverables beyond code, subcontracted delivery chains, and designing for the handover that ends every such engagement.
Topics: Milestone acceptance and technical deliverables · Documentation and handover artefacts · Subcontracted delivery and responsibility boundaries · Change requests against a fixed scope · Designing for eventual transfer to another operator · Managing access when you do not own the estate
Delivery that can be reproduced somewhere unfamiliar. Repository structure and branching that suits milestone delivery, pipeline definitions kept in code, templates reused across clients, and secret handling when several client estates are in play.
Topics: Branching for milestone-based delivery · Pipeline as code and template reuse · Parameterising a pipeline per client estate · Credential separation across engagements · Secret scanning across history · Bootstrapping delivery in a new environment quickly
Building where outbound access is blocked or filtered. Dependency and package mirrors, approved base images, importing artefacts into a restricted zone, reproducible builds with pinned versions, and upgrades in an estate that cannot reach a public registry.
Topics: Dependency, package and image mirrors · Approved base images and their rebuild cadence · Artefact import into a restricted zone · Pinned versions and reproducible builds · Upgrading in an air-gapped estate · Verifying integrity of imported artefacts
The environments public-sector and regulated programmes actually use. Working within an empanelled or community cloud, hardened operating-system baselines, infrastructure as code where console access is restricted, and evidence that a deployment matched its approved definition.
Topics: Constraints of empanelled and community cloud environments · Hardened baselines and configuration benchmarks · Infrastructure as code with restricted console access · Environment promotion and approval records · Network segmentation and jump-host access patterns · Proving deployed state matches approved definition
Testing built into delivery rather than bolted on before an audit. Static analysis, dependency and container scanning, secret detection, triage that distinguishes signal from noise, and producing findings in a form a security review will accept.
Topics: Static analysis in the pipeline · Dependency and container image scanning · Secret detection at commit and in history · Triage, severity policy and suppression with expiry · Break-the-build thresholds that survive contact with a deadline · Producing findings for a security review
Obligations expressed as infrastructure. Centralised logging with defined retention, accurate and synchronised clocks across the estate, the evidence needed to report an incident within a short window, and rehearsing that path before it is needed.
Topics: Centralised log collection and retention policy · Time synchronisation across the estate · Log integrity and access control · Assembling evidence for an incident report · Rehearsing a reporting timeline · Storage cost and retention trade-offs
The other half of the region's work. Load modelling from real traffic, autoscaling limits and warm capacity, feature flags and kill switches, rapid rollback, and the downstream systems that fail before the application does.
Topics: Load modelling from historical sale events · Autoscaling limits and warm capacity · Feature flags and kill switches · Rapid rollback under load · Downstream and third-party bottlenecks · Game-day rehearsal and post-event review
The daily reality for NCR engineers. Environment parity across clients, credential separation, reusable automation without cross-contamination, on-call across engagements, and knowledge transfer when people rotate between accounts.
Topics: Environment parity and configuration drift across clients · Credential and identity separation per engagement · Reusable automation without leaking client specifics · On-call and escalation across multiple accounts · Onboarding and rotation between engagements · Metrics reported per client without gaming
We rebuild the agenda around the tools you actually run.
Request a custom agendaMirror every dependency and image a project needs, disable outbound access, and complete a full build, scan and deploy from local artefacts alone.
Apply a hardened operating-system baseline through configuration management, verify compliance automatically, then reproduce the environment from code and diff it.
Add static analysis, dependency scanning and secret detection to a pipeline, tune thresholds to a workable level, then remediate a real finding end to end.
Build log retention with integrity controls, then run a timed drill: detect, assemble evidence and produce a reportable incident summary.
Model a sale-day traffic shape, scale until something outside the application breaks, add a kill switch and rapid rollback, then rerun the rehearsal.
Stand up a complete delivery chain in a restricted environment with gates, evidence and documentation, then hand it to another team who must operate it unaided.
Delhi and the surrounding National Capital Region hold two distinct engineering economies that sit only a short drive apart. Around Noida and Gurugram, large systems integrators, technology consultancies and product-engineering suppliers staff programmes delivered into client-owned estates, including public-sector and government-adjacent platforms where deployment targets are empanelled or restricted environments and the work is accepted against milestones. Alongside them sits a dense cluster of consumer platforms — commerce and quick commerce, travel, insurance, lending and payments, media and gaming — whose engineering calendar is dominated by campaign and sale events.
The practical brief that comes out of Delhi engagements reflects that split. Integrator teams ask for delivery chains they can stand up quickly inside constraints they do not control, build without outbound internet access, gate for security certification, and hand over at contract end. Consumer platform teams ask for load rehearsal, autoscaling limits, feature flags and rollback that works during a peak. Both increasingly arrive with the same compliance requirements attached: log retention, synchronised clocks across the estate, and the ability to assemble evidence for an incident report inside a short window. Engineers here also tend to work across multiple client estates simultaneously, so portable automation and strict credential separation matter more than in single-employer markets.

Helped to understand more on overall DevOps concepts.
Got good lab sessions which kept the new DevOps tool learnings to the point and it helped a lot in my career.
Very good training session. Well explained from the basics to the complex concepts. Also tried to cover practicals and demos within the 3 hour sessions. The learning content and videos are of a great deal of help.
Basics explanation was exemplary from Rajesh where he dealt with complicated topics to be simple. Great learning stuff personally for me.
Very detailed explanation and has lots of patience in attending the questionnaire. Thanks again for your wonderful sessions.
Good discussion, helped us to understand different tools in SRE.
