Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) Management and Operation Training Course

Matrix serves as an open protocol for secure, decentralized, and real-time communication. An increasing number of organizations are adopting Matrix and the Element client as alternatives to Slack and Microsoft Teams, prioritizing end-to-end encryption, on-premise data residency, and the ability to federate with trusted external partners.

This instructor-led, live training in Latvia (online or onsite) targets network and system administrators aiming to implement enterprise-grade network monitoring with open-source tools, free from vendor dependencies.

By the end of the program, participants will be able to deploy LibreNMS and Zabbix, monitor network devices, create dashboards and alerts, implement distributed monitoring, and integrate with external systems.

In this instructor-led, live training in Latvia (delivered online or onsite), learners will explore how to utilize ONAP for the automation of network services.

By the conclusion of this program, participants will have acquired the ability to:

• Understand, install, and configure the various elements of the ONAP ecosystem.
• Perform real-time, policy-driven orchestration and automation of physical and virtual network functions.
• Design, build, orchestrate, and oversee VNFs, SDNs, and other network services.
• Efficiently govern the entire networking lifecycle via a software-driven methodology.
• Develop, deploy, and scale networks leveraging cutting-edge open-source technologies and practices.

The training “Computer Network Security – How to Secure Your Services” presents the mechanisms and services securing modern network solutions. It covers the basics of ensuring data confidentiality and integrity, the application of encryption, certificates, public key infrastructure (PKI), and secure password storage. The course also discusses network security protocols and services, security systems, wireless network protection, connecting corporate branches, and security testing through penetration testing, network scanning, and vulnerability detection.

Synapse acts as the reference homeserver for the Matrix protocol, supporting decentralized, end-to-end encrypted messaging. This live, instructor-led course (online or on-site) is tailored for intermediate DevOps engineers and system administrators aiming to use Synapse and Element to substitute cloud chat platforms with a self-hosted, federated messaging infrastructure.

Uptime Kuma is a straightforward, self-hosted monitoring tool that tracks the availability of websites, services, and infrastructure. It serves as a viable replacement for Pingdom, Datadog Synthetics, and UptimeRobot, empowering teams to retain direct control over their monitoring data. This instructor-led, live training (delivered online or on-site) is designed for beginner-to-intermediate SREs and DevOps engineers looking to replace cloud-based uptime monitoring with a self-hosted, sovereign status tracking platform.

OpenVPN and WireGuard are the premier open-source VPN protocols. Hosting your own VPN server ensures that no third-party vendor can log traffic metadata, inject advertisements, or comply with foreign data requests. This training covers both protocols to suit different threat models and performance requirements.
