About the Course

This course will provide you with a basic introduction to Linux® skills using Red Hat® Enterprise Linux 8. It will show you how a Linux system is organized, and will demonstrate introductory system administration tasks, which you will be able to practice on your own. You will be introduced to reasons why Linux and the open source development model are so important in today's computing environment. Linux systems are used everywhere—the internet, point-of-sale systems, and the world's stock markets. You’ll find Linux running smart TVs, in-flight entertainment systems, and most of the top supercomputers in the world. There are many reasons why it is valuable for you to learn Linux. If you are looking for new opportunities in IT, Linux skills are in high demand. For example, if you are developing applications, it's likely your application or its runtime is hosted on Linux. If you're working in the cloud, your cloud instances may be based on Linux, and your private or public cloud environment is also probably based on Linux. If you're working with mobile applications or the Internet of Things, it is also likely that the operating system of your device is based on Linux. And, if you use Windows, you'll need to interoperate with Linux. After completing this course, you will have a solid introduction to working with Linux from the command line, using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 as a model. In applying these skills, you will be able to perform fundamental operational tasks, whether your Linux machine is on your desk or on a remote system across the Internet....

The presenter was well spoken and easy to understand.At no point in time did I feel overwhelmed or clueless. Definitely one of the best courses I've done on this site.

5 Stars for the trainer. He is easy to follow and it is a pleasure to listen to him.

5 stars for the content. I am not a noob but I had a lot of things to learn. I hugely appreciated the ratio between theory and hands-on.

I wish there was a longer version but I realize it is a free version and I thank you very much for the time and energy you invested into creating this high-value content.

For anyone who's interested in learning Linux/Unix, this is the gate, this is the start, and this is the foundation. I personally recommend beginners to start here as this course will give them the stepping-stones for a skill that is highly needed in almost most of the world's enterprises. Learning Linux is a must nowadays, and RHEL is the number one used distribution in the world. This course will provide you with a coverage with everything you need to know about Linux, and sets you up perfectly to continue with you learning journey towards other professional Red Hat certifications like the RHCSA, Ansible, Openshift ...etc. I highly recommend this course, the instructor Chris Caillouet is one of the best people that i ever learned anything from. His approach to fundamentally break and segment in-depth skills in a comprehensive brain-digestible manner in beyond impressive.

Many years in the future, I'll come back and say "I started from here".

This is a really great intro into RHEL--and also Linux, in general. I've been using Linux for a long time, and RHEL for the past year, and this course is even valuable for those who already know RHEL. It never hurts to brush up on one's knowledge of a subject. One should never assume that they know everything. Whether a prospective student is a beginner or a Linux veteran, this is a good course.

The course covers the basics and fundamentals of Linux that is well explained in detail by the tutor. As a beginner, it is more helpful to me learning the Linux basics and looking forward to complete the next courses. Thanks to Redhat and Coursera for the learning oppurtunity and bringing the best to us.
