What you'll learn

Manual operations that work for a small team become unsustainable as systems scale. In this course, Engineering for Reliability and Scale, you'll gain the ability to build automated, scalable infrastructure that grows with your organization. First, you'll explore the hierarchy of automation and strategies for systematically eliminating toil. Next, you'll discover how to implement Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and Ansible, including policy-as-code for compliance. Finally, you'll learn to design for scale through progressive deployments, auto-scaling, and platform engineering. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of reliability engineering needed to build systems that scale sublinearly, where adding capacity doesn't mean adding toil.
