Summary:

Learn to install, configure, administer, and secure AlmaLinux for enterprise and cloud environments through hands-on system administration exercises and real-world deployment scenarios. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to AlmaLinux, guiding you from installation and configuration to advanced system administration, server management, and security best practices. You will begin by exploring the fundamentals of AlmaLinux, including its architecture, advantages, long-term support model, and its role as a stable, enterprise-grade Linux distribution. As the course progresses, you will gain practical experience installing AlmaLinux on physical and virtual machines, configuring networking, applying system updates, and deploying the operating system on cloud platforms such as AWS and Microsoft Azure. You will then develop essential Linux administration skills by learning to manage packages with **dnf**, administer users and permissions, configure file systems, and manage system services using **systemctl**. The course also covers the deployment and maintenance of common server roles, including web and file servers, while demonstrating troubleshooting techniques for enterprise environments. A dedicated security module introduces best practices for protecting Linux servers, including configuring **Fail2Ban** to defend against unauthorized access and brute-force attacks. By the end of the course, you will be able to install and configure AlmaLinux on physical and virtual systems, manage packages and updates using **dnf**, administer users, permissions, services, and network configurations, deploy and troubleshoot web and file servers, secure enterprise Linux environments using Fail2Ban, and confidently manage AlmaLinux systems in both on-premises and cloud infrastructures. This course is designed for IT professionals, system administrators, cloud engineers, DevOps practitioners, developers, and Linux enthusiasts who want to build practical expertise in AlmaLinux administration. While prior Linux experience is beneficial, only a basic familiarity with command-line interfaces and an interest in enterprise Linux systems are recommended to successfully complete the course.
