Linux Web Operations LiveLessons guides system administrators, developers, and other Linux professionals through the layers of technology underlying modern web applications. The videos discuss the relationship between web and application servers, load balancers, and databases and introduce configuration management, monitoring, containers, cryptography, and DNS.

Description

In Linux Web Operations LiveLessons, Ben Whaley covers the architecture underlying a modern web stack. Based upon a simple example Python web application hosted in the AWS cloud, each lesson begins with general principles and uses command line examples to reinforce the concepts. Since the web is composed of a huge array of languages and platforms, the tutorials teach the viewer how to think about designing web applications for scalability more than deeply understanding a single technology. The videos cover web, application, and database servers; DNS records and servers; exchanging confidential and authenticated messages using cryptography; Ansible for orchestration and configuration management; working with APIs; and running applications in Docker containers.
