Testimonials
Janar Nagel
Senior Architect,
Entigo's training gave me a strong foundation for implementing GitOps in the public sector. Using ArgoCD and GitLab CI brought clarity and speed to our workflows. The training was an excellent starting point for organization-wide infrastructure automation. Thanks to Entigo, we can now implement more transparent, auditable, and reusable infrastructure management – exactly what the public sector needs.
