Learn to automate cloud infrastructure using Terraform and Ansible, moving from fundamentals to production-ready AWS integration. You will start with Infrastructure as Code basics, writing Terraform configurations in HCL, managing providers, variables, dependencies, state, lifecycle rules, and version constraints. With Ansible, you will cover installation, YAML, inventories, playbooks, modules, variables, conditionals, loops, and roles.
The Specialization ends with an applied AWS capstone where you use Terraform to provision VPCs, security groups, EC2 instances, and IAM policies, and Ansible with Jinja2 templates for server configuration. You will connect both tools via a dynamic inventory pipeline, automate CloudWatch monitoring, and build a portfolio-ready codebase through hands-on labs and assessments.
Every course emphasizes hands-on practice through labs, scenario-based exercises, and graded assessments.
Who this is for: Aspiring DevOps engineers, cloud engineers, system administrators, and IT professionals who want to learn Infrastructure as Code from the ground up and build to production-level automation skills. No prior Terraform or Ansible experience is required.
Projet d'apprentissage appliqué
Throughout this Specialization, hands-on labs and projects build toward a capstone project. Early courses cover Terraform configurations, state management, Ansible inventory files, playbooks, and role-based automation. Later, you will provision AWS services—including VPCs, custom subnets, security groups, EC2 instances, DynamoDB IAM policies, and CloudWatch alarms—using Terraform, while automating server configurations with Ansible file modules, Jinja2 templates, and conditionals. The final capstone integrates both tools into a single pipeline, building a multi-tier AWS environment for a web application by passing Terraform outputs into an Ansible dynamic inventory to deliver a portfolio-ready codebase.
