Overview

Discover the power of infrastructure automation in cloud computing. Cloud computing is the on-demand delivery of computing services over the Internet. One of the main advantages of cloud computing is that physical IT infrastructures like servers, disks, network equipment are now virtualised. Entire IT infrastructure can now be provisioned from the browser or applications and occupies no physical space in your data centre.

Infrastructure automation, or infrastructure as code (IaC), is the practice of using software tools and scripts to automate provision servers, installing software, configuring networks, defining firewall rules, etc. in a virtualised IT environment like cloud computing. Developers for the first time can integrate infrastructure provisioning and management of their application into their application itself.

IaC is also an integral part of DevOps culture; it allows DevOps engineers to create consistent, immutable and replicable environments for development, testing and production.

In this workshop-oriented programme, you will be equipped with the concepts of IaC, and will have the opportunity to learn about the different IaC tools and write scripts to provision resources according to a set of requirements.

Key Takeaways

At the end of the programme, you will be able to:

Articulate and explain the benefits of adopting IaC into an organisation
Understand major concepts in infrastructure automation
Create scripts to provision resources according to a set of application requirements
Managed provisioned resources and configurations

Who Should Attend

Please refer to the job roles section.
Targeted at Software Engineers, IT administrators and DevOps Engineers who are looking to use IaC tools to manage their virtualised IT resources or streamline their application rollouts.

Prerequisites

You need to be familiar with Linux system operation and administration commands (e.g. software installation, basic networking, formatting and mounting volumes, SSH key management etc).

What To Bring

You must bring your internet-enabled computing devices (laptops, tablets etc) with power chargers to access and download programme materials. No printed copies of programme materials are issued. Please refer to the full tech specifications here.
