Description
Devops is a recent movement in the IT industry that has brought developers and IT operations team close to each other. It is also often characterized by Operations team making use of tools and techniques used by developers for their work. With the emergence and widespread adoption of devops, much of what used to be considered infrastructure is now part of the code. It’s a different breed of engineers that makes Agile Infrastructure and deployment possible!!.
Learning Linux System Administration in depth is the primary stepping stone and an inevitable component in reaching the target of Professional Devops. With this training module, we help you achieve just that!
| Step | Module | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | ALPD 100 | Linux System |
| Administration From | ||
| Basics to Expert Level. | ||
| 2 | ALPD 200 | Devops Tools And |
| Infrastructure Automation |
Note: Both the modules can be opted individually. But we recommend Taking the full ALPD package (ALPD 100 + ALPD 200)
Course Deliverables
Classroom Training: Apart from the core conceptual knowledge that we deliver. All examples and practicals will be demonstrated practically on servers (Nothing will be just Theary!).
Lab: Students can create and destroy virtual machines on demand, to practice things learned in the class.
