Linux system administrators, site reliability engineers, and other IT professionals with some Ansible experience who are interested in learning how to manage and automate the deployment, configuration, and operation of key network services included with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.
Overview
Provide key network services using software included with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, including DNS with Unbound and BIND9, DHCP and DHCPv6, client e-mail transmission, printing service, NFS and SMB protocol file sharing, SQL database service with MariaDB, and web services using Apache HTTPD, nginx, Varnish, and HAProxy. Configure advanced networking for server use cases, including device teaming. Use Red Hat Ansible Engine to automate the manual deployment and configuration tasks covered in this course.
Learn how to configure, manage, and scale key services used in the data center Red Hat Services Management and Automation (RH358) is designed for IT professionals with some experience managing Linux© systems and want to learn more about how to manage and deploy network services included with Red Hat© Enterprise Linux which are particularly important in the modern IT data center. You will learn how to install, configure, and manage basic configurations of these services manually, and then use Red Hat Ansible© Engine to automate your work in a scalable, repeatable manner. This course is based on Red Hat Ansible Engine 2.9 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.1.
Discuss and review key tools and skills needed to manage network services.
Improve the redundancy or throughput of network connections of servers by configuring Linux network teaming between multiple network interfaces.

Discuss the basic operation of SQL-based relational databases, perform basic SQL queries for troubleshooting, and be able to set up a simple MariaDB database service.
Provide web content from Apache HTTPD or Nginx web servers, then configure them with virtual hosts and TLS-based encryption.
Improve performance of your web servers by using Varnish to cache static content being served and HAProxy to terminate TLS connections and balance load between servers.
Deliver simple file-based network shares to clients using the NFS and SMB protocols.
