Description

Linux is at the core of nearly all open-source projects. If you want to become a developer, then Linux is the engine that will run nearly all of your code. Your view of Linux will be different than a Linux System admin who must make sure that system availability is as close to 100% as possible. As a developer, you will be required to make Linux bend to your will, which is means you will have great power over the system. With great power comes great responsibility. You must be able to use Linux to accomplish your task, while not adversely affecting system reliability, security or operational efficiency. In this course you will learn how to make Linux deliver essential services and in the same motion, maintain the Linux system integrity. Successful students can generally expect their work efficiency to increase dramatically.
