Course Overview

All modern organisations are extensively involved in absorbing, processing, and generating information. These processes are becoming increasingly digital, and being able to interact with data and software flexibly is a crucial skill. For this purpose, edX has launched the Unix Tools: Dara, Software and Production Engineering Certification Course.

Candidates will get full knowledge of the Unix shell and its command-line tools in the Unix Tools: Dara, Software and Production Engineering Training. Unix tools also make it easier to perform computing tasks, thus improving the efficiency of professionals. They will also learn how to use Unix tools for prototyping and implementing big data workflows.

This is an intermediate-level course on Unix tools and will impart all relevant knowledge about running them on hardware. The Unix Tools: Dara, Software and Production Engineering Course consists of interactive examples and regular tests and assessments to check the candidate's knowledge. It is a self-paced online course, in which candidates can learn at their convenience and obtain the certificate. There are 2 tracks namely audit and verified tracks offered by Edx which need to be chosen by the candidates for learning the course. The verified track offers unlimited access with a certificate whereas the audit track offers limited period access to the course materials with no certificate.
