System Administration, Week 1: AWS Aliases

System Administrators are notoriously lazy, and AWS commands a notoriously lengthy to type. In this video, we demonstrate the use of shell aliases and functions to save ourselves some typing whenever we run AWS EC2 commands.

The aliases and shell functions we use are available here:

HAND WRITING IS A LEARNING TECHNOLOGY
we are already seeing the cognitive differences among Millennials & Zoomers who never learned to write properly by hand & those who did.

a notebook is the most basic of knowledge management systems. it can be:

- an archive
- a backup
- a reference
- an idea lab
- a gaming platform
- a collaborative project
- a canvas

but from a #devops #sysadmin POV, a notebook is an important form of REDUNDANCY. you can't brick a 3-ring binder or phish notes in a safe.

System Administration, Week 1: Warming up to EC2

In this short video, we prepare for our first homework assignment and demonstrate how to launch a #NetBSD instance in AWS EC2.

System Administration, Week 1: UNIX History

We're borrowing this video from our "Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment" class to give a brief summary of the history of the UNIX family of operating systems.

My first encounter with #DevOps was ridiculously simple, but in hindsight it was a pivotal moment in my career. Find out how rolling up my chair to sit with the ops team during a deployment sparked my whole DevOps journey.

System Administration, Week 1: Core Principles

In this video, we present a few core principles that will guide us throughout the semester: Scalability, Security, and Simplicity. We'll also get to know a few basic "laws", well known by any System Administrator. If you're wondering what all this has to do with Legos, please tune in...

System Administration, Week 1: The Job of a System Administrator

In this video, we try to capture the job of a System Administrator. We show what things SysAdmins may encounter in their day to day routine, ranging from blade servers and routers to cable ties and power tools and everything in between. As we try to define the job, we find out it's not quite that easy...

It's duct tape and WD40 all the way down.

When deployments are painful, our instinct works against us. We end up introducing bad fixes that make things worse. It's a bit like avoiding the dentist because they might do something that hurts.

System Administration, Week 1: Introduction

In this video, we cover a number of administrative issues relating to our course: we discuss why and how System Administration is covered in an academic Computer Science curriculum and outline the course syllabus.
