Artificial Intelligence Implementation Boot Camp

Learn to separate reality from myth, and filter real-world applications from business media buzz. This class is a fast-paced, intensive literacy class which leaves you quickly equipped with a broad range of management tools to incorporate machine intelligence into your own business strategy. ï¿½AIï¿½ is a buzzword, but the actual technology behind machine learning and other machine intelligence services is very real. Although there is broad consensus among major management analysts that AI and machine learning are immediate disruptors to most technology services, there is still very little practical adoption when it comes to integrating these features.

ï¿½The difficulties of adoption come with good reason. The data science and application engineering skills required to execute on a machine intelligence strategy and demonstrate concrete value from it are still the domain of only a few. But with tools such as Googleï¿½s open-source TensorFlow and others coming online all the time, suddenly much of the doctoral-level science of AI is already built into services that are more accessible to development teams. Even small wins on an AI strategy can move the needle, and competitive position is being grabbed by those that can execute.

ï¿½This class teaches you how to navigate the machine intelligence landscape and build actual use cases for your own scenarios. Youï¿½ll learn what types of teams, roles, platforms, and tools are required for a practical adoption strategy. Youï¿½ll learn to profile good candidate projects for AI features and spot business opportunities where AI could be useful. Group exercises allow you to exchange ideas with peers and work together to arrive at your own creative examples. The level of detail covered in this workshop leaves you thoroughly informed about the state of the art in AI and machine learning, and ready to face the future on your own teams.

Continuous Delivery Workshop

Continuous Delivery is a software engineering approach in which teams produce and test software in short cycles, ensuring that the software can be reliably released at any time. This approach enables building, testing and releasing deployable software faster and more often. When implemented correctly, the result is predictable, routine software releases that can be deployed at any time during the engineering process ï¿½ even in large-scale, distributed systems and complex production environments. Continuous delivery completely eliminates the need for many of the painful integration, testing and hardening phases that traditionally follow code development.

In this course, you will learn about workflow integration through hands-on labs, class demos, class participation exercises, video tutorials and traditional slides and lecture. The class is highly interactive, encouraging individuals to fully participate in all exercises to retain maximum benefits of the learning. The technologies and tools used in this class include: C#, Java, TFS, Git, Jenkins, Maven, Chef and Puppet. This course will give you the roadmap you need to make your release process a business advantage instead of a limitation to meeting business goals.
