This Puppet 5 beginner’s course provides a practical introduction to configuration management and infrastructure automation. It is designed for learners who are new to Puppet and want to build foundational DevOps and system administration skills.
The course begins with an overview of Puppet 5 and explains how configuration management helps automate server administration and maintain consistent infrastructure across multiple systems. Learners are introduced to the basic workflow of Puppet and how automation improves reliability and efficiency in IT operations.
One of the first practical lessons focuses on creating a Puppet Manifest, which is the core file used to define system configurations in Puppet. Learners understand how manifests automate tasks such as software installation, configuration setup, and resource management.
The course also introduces Git, an essential version control system used in DevOps environments. By learning Git basics alongside Puppet, students understand how automation code can be tracked, managed, and collaborated on efficiently.
Another key topic is file management in Puppet, including how files are created, modified, and maintained automatically across managed systems.
By the end of this course, learners will have a clear understanding of Puppet 5 fundamentals, automation workflows, and infrastructure management practices. It
