Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

As more and more workloads are moving to Cloud providers. Being proficient with Linux, in a Cloud environment, is becoming a necessity to do your job. Not only do you have to know enough Linux to manage your applications, but you also must understand DevOps and security for Linux in the Cloud. 

In this course, you will get an overview of what Linux is and how it is used in AWS by DevOps and Cloud engineers. Further, you will set up a Linux server where you can learn how to perform system administration tasks like installing software and managing users. In addition, you will also be introduced to DevOps principles and using tools to deliver software like containers.  

By the end of the course, you will start building a security foundation to keep your users and server safe.
