Linux Cloud and DevOps
Learn cloud computing models, virtualization, version control, and DevOps practices using Linux for effective IT operations and infrastructure management.
Learn cloud computing models, virtualization, version control, and DevOps practices using Linux for effective IT operations and infrastructure management.
This beginner-level course explores the integration of Linux with cloud computing and DevOps practices, making it ideal for those preparing for the Linux Foundation Certified IT Associate (LFCA) exam or anyone interested in expanding their Linux knowledge. Structured across four comprehensive modules, the course begins with an examination of cloud computing models including Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), highlighting Linux's crucial role in each. The second module focuses on virtualization techniques, covering hypervisor types, virtual machine management, bootstrapping new installations, and network virtualization in Linux environments. The third module introduces version control concepts using Git, teaching students how to commit code to repositories and merge different versions effectively. The final module delves into DevOps fundamentals, exploring containerization with Docker and orchestration tools to facilitate seamless testing and deployment of software. Through practical assignments and discussions, students gain hands-on experience with essential tools and concepts that bridge Linux, cloud computing, and modern development operations.
