about the subject

The Linux operating system is used in desktops, servers, cars, smartphones, household appliances, and even supercomputers. In fact, it’s the backbone of most of the world’s enterprise systems, especially virtual and cloud servers. With reliable security and easy-to-find support from a large community of users and commercial entities like Red Hat, it’s no wonder open-source Linux is a required skill for developers and administrators.

Linux in Motion teaches you the skills you need to successfully run and manage Linux servers. Drawing from his vast experience as a system and cloud administrator, author, and teacher, David Clinton uses live demonstrations, crystal-clear text, insightful diagrams, and hands-on projects to introduce Linux virtualization, securing remote sessions, configuring backups, working with Bash scripts, server monitoring, and much more. Realistic use cases in every section affirm the benefits of the Linux OS, and quick-check exercises let you test your new knowledge, locking it in. Practice projects throughout give you valuable hands-on experience in vital Linux administration tasks.
