dc.description.abstract | “This book is, in my opinion, pretty impressive! Set into four major parts, it covers the key things a modern Linux sysadmin must know.
The book begins (Part 1) with a gentle learning curve, focusing on all the things a budding Linux sysadmin might need to know. Part 2 delves into the details, guiding you through managing filesystems, Bash scripting (with practical examples), and even securing a modern Linux system. I particularly learned new things, including Disaster Recovery Planning (DRP), and more on SELinux and AppArmor!
Cloud-based sysadmin techniques, such as working with Linux’s powerful KVM hypervisor and managing containers with Docker form the next major part (Part 3). Part 4 of the book is wholly devoted to modern cloud administration tech on Linux.
The book’s GitHub site has all the source-level code examples and config fragments. All in all, a great read for budding as well as experienced Linux sysadmins working with a modern Linux (cloud) environment.”
