WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This workshop is intended for people who want to learn the basics of cloud automation and understand how Red Hat^® Ansible^® Automation Platform can help you orchestrate, operationalize and govern your hybrid cloud environments.

If you have always wanted to know more about cloud automation and Ansible Automation Platform, this workshop is for you.

AGENDA:

The workshop will cover:

• Infrastructure visibility - In this lab, we will illustrate how we can retrieve Ansible facts (key, value pairs), also known as structured data, from public clouds and how we can use this data to provide us awareness of our cloud footprint easily
• Cloud Operations - This lab will illustrate how Ansible Automation Platform can help you automate common day-2 cloud operations tasks across your public cloud. Our focus here will be on AWS, but the use cases here are ones you can extend across the hybrid cloud
• Infrastructure optimization - In this lab, we will guide you in understanding some basic optimization exercises that can help you tame your public clouds
• Terraforming Clouds with Ansible - In this lab we explore the basics of Terraform and how we can use it to deploy infrastructure. We then take it up a level by introducing Ansible's Automation controller and simplify the creation of this infrastructure as well as bring the all important post-provisioning tasks which we all need to do when infrastructure is being configured. This lab will get you creating infrastructure with Terraform and Automation controller in no time
