Linux Fundamentals for Beginners
Linux is one of the popular operating systems. As you know, Linux is an
open-source operating system. Being open-source has certain advantages.
Open-source software is generally more cost-effective as compared to any
proprietary solution. In addition to it, it is less vulnerable to virus attacks as
compared to other operating systems like Windows. As Linux has a strong
market share, learning Linux fundamentals is important for a beginner.
Cloud is the ‘in thing’ and hence Linux!
As a beginner, if you do not have any experience working with Linux, you
might say I have never worked on this operating system. However, this is
not true. After all, you use Google, Facebook, and similar platforms every
day. That means you are indirectly using Linux only as these platforms use
it.
Amazon Web Services(AWS) is a popular public cloud platform. You must
have heard about this. When you start operating with it, what are you using
is Linux. Learning cloud computing technology is one of the key aspects for
young job aspirants. And learning Linux fundamentals is the first step toward
it.
What do you learn in Linux Fundamentals?
Linux being an operating system like windows, one needs to master similar
operations like managing users, files and storage, and other resources. The
main difference is Windows has a more sophisticated graphical user
interface(GUI) which is easy to use. In contrast, Linux is more command-line
oriented. Being a server operating system, this becomes a very useful
feature. Because the command-line interface is convenient and more
efficient for system administration. You have to get used to interacting with
the operating system using a command prompt or shell.
Here are some basic commands to master.
ls Shows listing of directory
man
Shows Linux manual pages in which
details on the usage of commands and
examples are given. This is a great
source for learning Linux commands.
vim Opens Vim editor
mkdir Make new directory
rmdir Remove directory
ps
List and details of currently running
processes
rm Deletes file/s
grep
Powerful commands which can be used
to search through the file system
Beyond Linux Fundamentals
Learning and practicing Linux commands for manipulation of files, and the
use of editors like Vi/Vim is one part of the learning. This is very useful when
you interact with Linux on your PC or on an AWS cloud. In addition to this, if
you want to look at administration, there are many things to learn and
practice.
You can study various Linux processes, process details, commands to
interact with them, manage network, configuration of secure shell, and
installation of the operating system, and so on.
You can start with learning Linux fundamentals right now and explore more
career opportunities in the same domain. For this, joining a comprehensive
training course on Linux would be of great help. Nevertheless, you may also
pursue a global Red Hat Linux Certification like RHCSA.
Red Hat Linux Certification Course
Learning the Red Hat Linux course from professional institutes like Texceed
can be of great help in two ways. If you start early, that is while pursuing
your graduation, the knowledge would be helpful for you in cracking your
campus interviews. Secondly, you will get a global credential like RHCSA.
This will increase your chances of getting a good first job and hence a nice
rewarding career.
Conclusion
Here are some of the significant Linux Fundamentals for Beginners that will
help an individual while stepping into a Career in Linux.
