O’Reilly covers everything we've got, with content to help us build a world-class technology community, upgrade the capabilities and competencies of our teams, and improve overall team performance as well as their engagement.
I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.
I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.
I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
What this book covers
Chapter 1, Introduction and Environment Setup, explains how to set up a vanilla environment so that you understand what Vagrant does behind the scenes, and why we do what we do in terms of installation.
Chapter 2, Remote Administration with SSH, helps you understand the marvel that is SSH, and how it can make your life not only easier, but significantly better.
Chapter 3, Networking and Firewalls, covers a topic I find to be more of a pain than any other, networking and firewalling. We're going to look at the importance of each of these.
Chapter 4, Services and Daemons, inspects the nature of daemons, hunting them down, and killing them when they get too power-hungry. Services are also covered in this chapter.
