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!
