Hello, and welcome.
My name is Andrew Mallett, and you are just minutes from learning
to automate management of your Linux system.
Let me introduce you to my latest course, CompTIA Linux+:
Scripting, Containers, and Automation.
I'm the owner of The Urban Penguin within the UK, training and consulting
in Linux, and I've been doing so now for many years,
working both as a system administrator and a dabbling developer,
working a lot with Python currently, as well as configuration
management systems such as Ansible, Puppet, and Chef.
DevOps and automation in Linux is paramount, and learning that toolset
now will help you with your cloud and local appliances.
Some of the major topics that we're going to cover will include
version control using Git, Linux shell scripting,
configuration management using Ansible, Puppet,
Salt, and Chef, as well as clustering microservices with Kubernetes.
By the end of this course,
you will know how to manage Linux with a wide range of
DevOps tools. Before beginning the course,
you should be familiar with working at the Linux command line. These skills can be gained from the RHEL 8: Essential Tools course.
