Course Overview
Configuration as Code for Enterprise Automation with Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform (AU245) is a Red Hat–official course designed for IT professionals seeking to master scalable automation through modern DevOps practices. This course prepares automation architects, platform engineers, and DevOps engineers to implement Configuration as Code (CaC) and continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) principles within Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform. With 92% of Fortune 500 companies adopting automation platforms like Ansible to streamline operations, this training equips learners with in-demand skills to manage complex environments reliably. Targeted at system administrators and site reliability engineers, AU245 bridges the gap between manual configuration and automated, version-controlled infrastructure, ensuring consistent deployments across hybrid and multi-cloud landscapes.
The course emphasizes hands-on experience with core technologies including Git for version control, Ansible Content Collections, Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, CI/CD pipelines, and execution environments. Students engage in practical labs using a browser-accessible Ansible Automation Platform environment where they build a complete Configuration as Code pipeline. Participants configure projects, inventories, credentials, and job templates entirely through code, automate synchronization via Git hooks, and construct validated workflows that promote changes from development to production. A key project involves creating an execution environment from a container image and deploying it across stages, simulating real-world scenarios where configuration drift and compliance risks are mitigated through automated enforcement and audit trails.
While AU245 does not map to a standalone certification exam, it is a critical component of the Red Hat Certified Architect in Ansible (RHCA-Ansible) track, one of the most respected credentials in enterprise automation. Professionals with RHCA-Ansible certification report an average salary increase of 25%, with senior automation architects earning up to $145,000 annually in North America. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling and 1-on-1 training options using official Red Hat courseware, ensuring personalized mastery. Upon completion, learners are positioned to lead automation strategy initiatives, drive operational efficiency, and advance into senior roles such as Automation Lead or Cloud Platform Architect.
