You may already know that Red Hat® Satellite is the best way to manage your Red Hat infrastructure. But do you know all of the tips and tricks to keep your Red Hat Enterprise Linux® (RHEL) environments and other Red Hat infrastructure running efficiently, securely and compliant with various standards? This in-person, hands-on workshop is for you!

Workshop details:

This hands-on technical workshop will go through the process of configuring a Satellite server in such a way that it is just as easy and quick to manage 100,000 machines as it is to manage a dozen machines. This will include deploying the OS, installing and configuring software, patching on a regular schedule, and verifying your applications are still functional as part of the patching process. The demonstrated features will work for on-prem single datacenter, on-prem multi-datacenter, cloud, multi-cloud, and hybrid environments.
