Ansible and AWX

training workshop

Performance Management
Just monitoring network traffic ist not enough. Learn more about how to gain key insights by monitoring the right performance parameters.

Knowledge to take away.

Learn the basics and best practices of Ansible and AWX in our interactive workshop. Together we will work out everything you need to develop automation solutions for your IT yourself in a dedicated AWX training environment. You will receive practical tips from our experienced trainers and learn all the relevant techniques.

We offer both standard training courses and customised workshops – remotely or on site.

Automation made easy.

Automation not only saves time, but also creates space for innovation. In our Ansible and AWX training workshop, we show you how to manage complex IT processes efficiently and reliably – in a practical and understandable way.

Dr. Florian Liers, Solution Architect, DICOS

Everything you need to know at a glance.

Each participant needs a laptop and an IDE of their choice (e.g. Visual Studio Code) with Git integration (e.g. Git Addon for VSCode).
DICOS provides all participants with their own dedicated playground to run the automations developed in the workshop.
We show you how you can automate a wide range of operating systems and manage your developed playbooks cleanly in GIT.
All elements of the environment are located in our local Kubernetes cluster and we will also take the opportunity to familiarise ourselves with some details of the infrastructure.

And the best thing is:

The examples developed in the workshop can usually be directly
directly to the environment in your own company.

It’s the content that counts.

Ansible basics
AWX basics

The workshop starts with a simple ‘Hello World’ in Ansible. We use the AWX graphical user interface to execute Ansible code. This allows you to familiarise yourself with the use of a fully-fledged automation platform in the same breath. In the workshop, we will guide you through the relevant concepts of Ansible.

Unlike many courses on the web, we do not emphasise learning individual Ansible modules by heart. Instead, we show you how to work optimally with the Ansible documentation and what pitfalls there are during development. The main focus is on your independence.

Practical knowledge that stays We will provide you with detailed templates that you can use to get started right after the workshop. Topics such as YAML syntax, Ansible roles and handlers, general error handling, serialisation of automations, Ansible variable precedence, Jinja templating, configuration management or even JSON queries will be easy for you after a visit with us.
Strong together

Ansible & AWX

Ansible takes care of the automation of your processes – AWX takes care of the rest. With AWX, Ansible is supplemented by important enterprise features such as auditing and security. The software also collects all important information about your automations in a modern web interface.
