About this training
Linux
Linux is a Unix-like computer operating system assembled under the model of free and open-source software development and distribution. Linux is the leading operating system on servers, mainframe computers and supercomputers. It also runs on embedded systems, for example mobile phones and tablet computers, as well as televisions.
Goal
Going beyond the basic "Linux for Users" training, the course aims to teach more in-depth topics for people who control a Linux system - on their computer, in a VM, or on a server. Learn to diagnose problems, manage software and configure a Linux system.
