OVERVIEW

Join Red Hat^® for a hands-on technical workshop with Red Hat Enterprise Linux®. We will cover what’s new in the latest release and get hands-on experience with a variety of features to help you evolve your applications for portability and build expertise in profiling applications and systems.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

What’s new in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9: We will kick off the workshop with a brief overview of updates and changes included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.

Network device management: After seeing key topics on configuring network settings with network manager, this hands-on lab exercise will guide you through how to work with network manager to make configuration changes to network interfaces on your systems.

System roles: System roles are an automation feature included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux, based on Ansible, that can be used to automate system administration tasks across your Red Hat Enterprise Linux system population, regardless of version. In this hands-on exercise, you will use system roles to automate setting configuration and updating in a standard operating environment (SOE).

Auditing and reporting tools: Red Hat Enterprise Linux subscriptions include a variety of tools to help you with system auditing and reporting. Not only can you gain information about your population, but in-depth reports will help you survive your next security and risk audit. In this lab, we will explore a number of these tools, including:

• Session recording: designed to capture data from command-line sessions running on a system, including commands issued, output and error messages, and edited file content.
• Insights vulnerability: provides in-depth reporting about your systems and Common Vulnerability and Exploits (CVEs) that exist across the population.

Performance observability: We routinely hear that resolving system performance issues is not only one of the most critical tasks for system administrators, but also one of the most time consuming. In this exercise, we will explore performance observability tools included with Red Hat Enterprise Linux that can provide in-depth system data. You will use several of the tools simultaneously to see how something as mundane as a system update can be used to gather a wealth of information about what the system is actually doing.

Containerizing applications: Need to build or port an application into a container? Position your container project for success by using tools included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux and the Red Hat Universal Base Image (UBI). Leveraging industry-leading container tools like podman and buildah, and Red Hat-maintained base images, you can focus on the critical container tasks like installing or porting your application and setting configuration details. After discussing recommended practices for working with containerized applications, you will build two applications into UBI containers.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This workshop is ideal for developers, system administrators, and infrastructure architects with a technical background interested in learning how the tools in Red Hat Enterprise Linux enable faster delivery of workloads, with less effort.

PRE-REQUISITES
Lab materials will be provided.

Attendees should have a basic understanding of working with Linux systems and must have a laptop with Chrome 73+, Firefox 60+, Edge 40+, or Safari 12+ installed. There is no student prep work required prior to the workshop.

Note: Participants Will Be Required To Bring Their Own Laptops With Direct Internet Access (Without Vpn, Proxy) To Participate In The Hands-On Labs Through Google Chrome Browser.
