Course Overview

The Red Hat DO007 - Ansible Basics: Automation Technical Overview is a free, on-demand training course designed to introduce IT professionals to the core concepts of automation using Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform. While it does not directly align with a specific certification exam, it serves as a foundational stepping stone toward advanced courses like Red Hat Enterprise Linux Automation with Ansible (RH294) and the Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) certification. This course is ideal for IT leaders, system administrators, and DevOps engineers who want to understand how automation streamlines configuration management, application deployment, and infrastructure provisioning. With 96% of Red Hat students reporting improved readiness to maximize their technology investments, this course delivers industry-relevant insights into one of the most widely adopted automation platforms, used by over 40,000 organizations globally.

Students explore key components of the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, including Ansible modules, tasks, playbooks, variables, templates, roles, collections, and Automation Controller. Although DO007 is primarily video-based with no formal hands-on labs, learners are exposed to real-world automation workflows through demonstrations in a preconfigured Ansible environment. The course walks through building a simple Ansible playbook from scratch, using YAML syntax, managing inventories, and implementing role-based access control (RBAC) and workflows. Learners gain practical insight into how Ansible connects to remote systems and automates tasks across cloud, virtual, and physical environments, preparing them for more advanced, lab-intensive training paths.

By completing the DO007 - Ansible Basics: Automation Technical Overview course, professionals lay the groundwork for pursuing the highly respected RHCE certification, which is recognized globally as a benchmark for real-world Linux and automation skills. Red Hat Certified Engineers command average salaries of $120,000+ in North America, reflecting the high demand for automation expertise. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning path with 1-on-1 training and Guaranteed-to-Run sessions, ensuring personalized attention and flexible scheduling. Upon completion, learners are well-positioned to advance into roles such as Automation Engineer, DevOps Specialist, or Cloud Architect, driving efficiency and innovation in modern IT environments.
