Linux Server Administration
The Linux Server Administration Course is a comprehensive and intensive training program designed to equip learners with the practical skills required to manage and secure Linux-based servers in real-world environments. Starting from the basics of Linux operating systems and command-line usage, the course quickly progresses to advanced topics like user and group management, file system configuration, service control, network setup, SSH security, and process monitoring. Whether you're a beginner or a professional aiming to sharpen your Linux server skills, this course provides a complete, hands-on learning path.
Throughout the course, students gain in-depth experience with essential server services such as web servers (Apache, Nginx), database servers (MySQL, PostgreSQL), DNS and FTP, as well as advanced topics like Logical Volume Management (LVM), firewalls, SELinux/AppArmor, system auditing, and performance tuning. The curriculum also includes exposure to modern technologies such as containerization with Docker, virtualization with KVM, and cloud server administration. Each module is backed by real-world examples, practical labs, and troubleshooting exercises to build strong system administration capabilities.
By the end of the training, learners will be capable of deploying, configuring, securing, and maintaining Linux servers in production environments. They’ll also be well-prepared for industry certifications such as RHCSA, RHCE, LFCS, and CompTIA Linux+. Whether you're preparing for a job in IT infrastructure, cybersecurity, DevOps, or cloud engineering, this course offers the foundational and advanced knowledge necessary for success in any Linux-based professional role.
Course Requirements
