WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
REQUIREMENTS
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR
DESCRIPTION
Container automation often fails due to inconsistent host setup,
configuration drift, and dependency mismatches across environments.
In this course, Automating Container Management with Ansible, you’ll
learn how to configure container hosts, automate image and container
workflows, and ensure consistent execution everywhere.
First, you’ll learn how to automate the host setup process,
configuring prerequisites, installing and configuring Docker and
Podman, and installing the Ansible collections you’ll use throughout
the course.
Next, you’ll dive into image and container orchestration,
build/pull/tag/archive images, run containers with runtime policies,
and deploy persistent storage.
Finally, you’ll build portable Ansible execution environments using
ansible-builder and use them with ansible-navigator.
When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and
knowledge to automate the deployment and operation of containers with
Ansible.
