Tutorials and Best Practices for the Cloud

At IT Wonder Lab we share best practices and tutorials for the deployment of applications and the management of cloud infrastructures.

We have tutorials for the following technologies in English and Spanish:

Kubernetes: Kubernetes is an open-source platform for managing containerized workloads and services. Kubernetes facilitates declarative deployment of infrastructure and applications.
Terraform: Provision and manage cloud infrastructure using best practices by defining the infrastructure as code. Terraform can manage infrastructure from the main cloud providers: AWS, Google, Azure, OpenStack, VMware, Oracle, Docker, CloudStack, …
Ansible: Provisioning, configuration management, application deployment, and continuous delivery with hundreds of modules available to automate repetitive tasks in the main operating systems and cloud and on-premises providers.
AWS: Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most popular, powerful, and distributed IaaS and PaaS cloud platform with enterprise capabilities.
