Red Hat Transformational Learning: Introduction to Pragmatic Site Reliability Engineering
Course description
A pragmatic introduction to the Site Reliability Engineering implementation of DevOps
Red Hat Transformational Learning: Introduction to Pragmatic Site Reliability Engineering (TL112) teaches the vocabulary, concepts and cultural considerations required to prepare to adopt an implementation of DevOps referred to as Site Reliability Engineering (SRE). In this course, the history, definitions, and Red Hat specific take on this practice will be explored as the student prepares to continue the learning path of joining or implementing an SRE team.
Following course completion, you will receive a 45-day extended access to hands-on labs for any course that includes a virtual environment.
