Course Overview
The AWX for Beginners course by Open Source is designed to equip IT professionals with foundational skills in managing automation through the AWX platform, the open-source upstream project for Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform. This course is ideal for system administrators, DevOps engineers, and IT automation specialists seeking to streamline configuration management and orchestrate complex workflows. With over 70% of Fortune 500 companies adopting Ansible-based automation, demand for AWX proficiency is rapidly growing across cloud and hybrid environments. Participants will gain hands-on experience preparing them for real-world automation challenges and advanced certifications such as the Red Hat Certified Specialist in Managing Automation with Ansible Automation Platform (EX467).
Students will work directly with core technologies including Ansible, AWX, Kubernetes, Git, RESTful APIs, and execution environments within a dedicated lab environment. The hands-on component focuses on deploying and configuring an AWX instance on Kubernetes, creating organizations, projects, inventories, and job templates, and implementing role-based access control (RBAC). A key lab scenario involves integrating AWX with GitHub to automate the deployment of security policies across managed nodes, allowing students to build, test, and execute end-to-end automation workflows. These practical exercises are conducted through the AWX web interface and command-line tools, simulating enterprise-grade automation operations.
This course prepares learners for the EX467 certification, a widely recognized credential that validates expertise in managing enterprise automation at scale. Certified professionals report salary increases of 10–20%, with average earnings reaching $120,000+ in the U.S. and ₹16–30 LPA in India. Koenig Solutions enhances learning with Guaranteed-to-Run batches and access to official courseware, ensuring consistent, instructor-led training. Upon completion, graduates are positioned to advance into roles such as Automation Engineer, Cloud Operations Specialist, or DevOps Consultant, driving efficiency and innovation in modern IT infrastructure.
