Dynamic inventory is an Ansible feature that automatically discovers and lists infrastructure hosts instead of relying on static files. It is essential for managing cloud environments where servers are created and removed frequently.

This intermediate Ansible course recommends a basic understanding of Ansible playbooks, Jenkins, YAML, Amazon EC2, and IAM. Access to an AWS Free Tier account is also recommended for the cloud provisioning demonstrations.

This Ansible DevOps integration course covers playbook performance optimization, dynamic inventory and cloud provisioning, testing and debugging with Molecule, CI/CD pipeline integration, environment promotion, and governance through RBAC, compliance, and auditing.

This is an intermediate-level Ansible course. Beginners are encouraged to start with the foundational courses in the Specialization, as this course assumes you can already write and structure Ansible playbooks and roles.

Cloud provisioning in this course is demonstrated using AWS. An AWS Free Tier account is recommended for practicing dynamic inventory and cloud provisioning with Ansible, though the core concepts can be understood without one.

Yes. This is a follow-along Ansible course built around hands-on demonstrations, so you can replicate each technique in your own environment as you learn playbook optimization, cloud provisioning, testing, and CI/CD integration.

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
