Understanding of what Puppet is, how it works, and when to use it.
In this micro-course, you’ll get a solid understanding of what Puppet is, how it works, and when to use it. We’ll also delve into why you would use Puppet, using real world scenarios and tackling common problems. You will also create your very first puppet code to see what it’s like to design configuration management using YAML.
What's the difference between theoretical knowledge and real skills? Practical real-world experience. That's where Hands-on Labs come in! Hands-on Labs are guided, interactive experiences that help you learn and practice real-world scenarios in real cloud environments. Hands-on Labs are seamlessly integrated in courses, so you can learn by doing.
