Course Description

This course provides an introduction to Microclimate, an end-to-end development environment that lets you rapidly create, edit, and deploy applications that run in containers. Microclimate can be installed locally, or on IBM Cloud Private, where you can create a pipeline for continuous integration and delivery.In this course, you learn how to quickly set up a development environment for working with Microclimate, and import a sample application. Using the Integrated Jenkins pipeline and Github, you also learn how to deploy a microservice application to IBM Cloud Private.If you choose to take this course and earn the Coursera course certificate, you will also earn an IBM digital badge. To find out more about IBM digital badges follow the link https://ibm.biz/badging.

of the 4 courses in the specialization this was the only one that was just bad and not relevant

By Danillo L F on 18-Oct-19

I wish week 4 was better explained with more tutorials of how to use microclimate within ibm cloud private instead of just providing a link that I could find on my first google search... Other than that was fun to learn microclimate, specially with the rogue agent game.

The course showcases how to install microclimate and deploy a sample app with it. However it does not go into more details about the application, the environment and the runtimes.

Instructions for setting up microclimate on cloud private need reviewing

Some presentations need to be updated.

The course content is good but the course instructors could do more to improve the engagement level of students

By Meenakshi J on 31-Mar-19

Mostly related to IBM Cloud Private & Microclimate. Good learning curve, but much of links are broken and content is outdated.

very nice, but I would like to know more about how Microclimate can help with Service Discovery and Circuit Breakers. Need more examples and demos to persuade us to use Microclimate for our Microservices Management
