code: LFS430

Automation is essential to running Linux in the enterprise effectively. Automation lets you minimize costs by reducing manual operations, helps ensure compliance across the data center, standardizes your software infrastructure and accelerates deployments for your bare-metal and cloud infrastructures. This course will teach you how to use automation to achieve these outcomes.

This course is designed for IT professionals who are responsible for automating enterprise Linux systems.

In this course, you will learn how to participate in architectural decisions involving data center automation, and to understand advanced system administration concepts and techniques that take scalability, reproducibility and efficiency into account. The course also covers how to provision physical (bare-metal) and virtual hosts in a consistent and scalable way, deploy configuration management tools in an heterogeneous Linux environment, package software releases on both RPM and DPKG based systems, plan, build and customize OS releases in your environment and more.

This course prepares you with everything you need to know to implement Linux automation tools in an enterprise environment.
