This Specialization provides a comprehensive, hands-on journey into configuration management and infrastructure automation using Puppet. Learners progress from foundational concepts to advanced architectural design, mastering how to automate system configuration, manage infrastructure as code, and enforce consistency across environments. Through real-world examples and industry-aligned best practices, learners gain expertise in Puppet resources, modules, Hiera, roles and profiles, and secure automation workflows. By completing this Specialization, learners are prepared to design, deploy, and maintain scalable, reliable, and secure infrastructure solutions aligned with modern DevOps and system administration standards.
Applied Learning Project
Learners complete end-to-end, project-based implementations that simulate real production environments, including automated configuration, secure access management, and multi-tier service deployment. These projects require learners to apply Puppet manifests, modules, Hiera data, and automation workflows to solve authentic infrastructure challenges commonly faced by DevOps and IT teams.
