  • Overview3:19

    Learn how system administrators run the Linux operating system on cloud services, from private and public virtualization to KVM, AWS EC2, and Azure with Docker integration.

  • Linux as a KVM Host30:44

    Learn how Linux with KVM functions as a type one hypervisor to host virtual machines. Build a private cloud using QEMU, libvirt, and virt-manager for management.

  • Linux as a KVM Host Part 215:16

    Configure KVM storage on a Linux host with virt-manager; move libvirt images to a storage pool, set up mount/storage and ISO directories, and prepare the host to run virtual machines.

  • Linux as a KVM Guest31:17

    plan host resources and install media for a kvm guest. create a vm with cpu, memory, and qcow2 disk in a storage pool, then manage via virt-manager.

Requirements

  • This course is designed for individuals with a basic understanding of Linux. Participants should have familiarity with common Linux commands, file system navigation, and basic system administration tasks. Additionally, a general understanding of cloud computing concepts (though not mandatory) can be helpful. Access to a cloud provider account for hands-on labs and exercises is recommended but not required.

Description

The "Linux in the Cloud" course is designed to equip participants with the knowledge and practical skills required to effectively utilize Linux-based systems and applications in cloud computing environments. As the demand for cloud-based solutions continues to grow, this course empowers individuals to harness the power of Linux within cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and others.

The Linux in the Cloud focuses on implementing the Linux operating system in a virtualized environment. Companies are relying less and less on dedicated hardware and are instead turning to shared hardware to optimize resource utilization and increase deployment flexibility. The hosts demonstrate virtualizing Linux using technologies like KVM and Docker as well as public cloud deployments using Amazon EC2 and Microsoft Azure.
