You will explore the installation process, partitioning, package selection, and basic system configurations. This module will enable you to set up a Linux server from scratch.
Server Virtualization: Server virtualization allows for the creation of virtual machines (VMs) on a physical server, enabling efficient utilization of hardware resources. In this module, you will learn about server virtualization technologies such as VMware or VirtualBox. You will understand the concepts of virtualization, create and manage virtual machines, and explore the benefits of virtualization in server management.
VPS Installation and Configuration: A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a virtualized server environment that provides dedicated resources for specific applications or services. In this module, you will learn how to install and configure a VPS. You will explore VPS management tools, networking configurations, security considerations, and resource allocation. This module will equip you with the skills to set up and manage VPS instances.
WHM/cPanel: WHM (Web Host Manager) and cPanel are widely used control panels for managing web hosting environments. In this module, you will learn how to install and configure WHM/cPanel on a server. You will explore features such as user management, domain management, email configuration, and server security settings. This module will enable you to effectively manage web hosting environments using WHM/cPanel.
SSL: SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a security protocol used to establish secure communication between a server and a client. In this module, you will learn how to configure SSL certificates on a server to enable secure connections. You will understand the process of obtaining SSL certificates, configuring web servers to use SSL, and troubleshooting common SSL-related issues.
Server Backup: Regular backups are crucial for data protection and disaster recovery. In this module, you will learn how to implement server backup strategies. You will explore different backup methods, such as full backups, incremental backups, and off-site backups. You will also learn about backup tools and best practices for data restoration.
Cron: Cron is a time-based job scheduling utility in Linux-based operating systems. In this module, you will learn how to use Cron to schedule recurring tasks and automate server management processes. You will explore Cron syntax, scheduling options, and common use cases for automated tasks.
Scripting: Scripting languages such as Bash or Python are essential for automating server management tasks. In this module, you will learn the basics of scripting and how to write scripts to automate common server management operations. You will understand variables, control structures, functions, and file operations in scripting languages.
