Academy

Practical training for engineers operating hybrid infrastructure.

Networking foundations, contract-driven automation, and evidence-first DR drills taught as repeatable operating patterns.

What you'll be able to do
  • Design and validate hybrid networking patterns (WAN, BGP, VPN)
  • Build and run contract-driven automation using modules, drivers, profiles, and packs
  • Deploy and operate platform services: PostgreSQL HA, NetBox, RKE2, ArgoCD
  • Provision infrastructure with IPAM-driven IP allocation and automated inventory sync
  • Produce evidence-first operations: DR drills, probes, and redacted outputs
  • Execute and rehearse full DR failover and failback cycles with review-ready evidence
How it's delivered
  • Self-paced content with structured labs
  • Live sessions and office hours
  • Assessment through submitted evidence packs — not quizzes

Curriculum tracks

Six tracks covering the full hybrid infrastructure stack — from networking to DR automation.

01
Networking Foundations

WAN design, BGP peering, IPsec/WireGuard VPN, and DNS delegation patterns for hybrid topologies.

Modules covered
  • VLAN / subnet segmentation
  • BGP route policy
  • VPN tunnel commissioning
  • DNS split-horizon
Open track
02
Contract-Driven Automation

ModuleSpec contracts, driver isolation, profile governance, and replaceable pack architecture.

Modules covered
  • ModuleSpec authoring
  • Driver lifecycle
  • Profile & policy defaults
  • Pack versioning
Open track
03
Evidence-First Operations

DR drills, burst execution, probe verification, and structured evidence output for audit and review.

Modules covered
  • DR drill planning
  • Burst capacity patterns
  • Probe & health checks
  • Evidence envelope review
Open track
04
Platform Services

Deploy and operate PostgreSQL HA, NetBox IPAM, RKE2 Kubernetes, and ArgoCD on bare-metal using HybridOps blueprints.

Modules covered
  • PostgreSQL HA with Patroni + etcd
  • NetBox IPAM service deployment
  • RKE2 Kubernetes cluster provisioning
  • ArgoCD GitOps bootstrap
Open track
05
IPAM-Driven Infrastructure

Use NetBox as the authoritative IPAM source. Provision infrastructure where IP allocation, inventory records, and module state stay in sync automatically.

Modules covered
  • NetBox as authoritative IPAM (require_ipam: true)
  • IP allocation by stable identity
  • Automated NetBox export and sync hooks
  • Multi-environment with shared SDN authority
Open track
06
Disaster Recovery & Automation

Execute and rehearse DR failover and failback across on-prem and cloud using pgBackRest, Cloud SQL replication, DNS cutover, and the HybridOps decision service.

Modules covered
  • pgBackRest backup repository (GCS/S3)
  • Cloud SQL managed replication via DMS
  • DNS-based failover mechanism
  • Decision service threshold triggers
Open track

Track progression

Tracks 01–03 can be taken in any order. Tracks 04–06 build on each other and assume completion of Track 01 or equivalent.
