    This comprehensive course guides you through the end-to-end installation, configuration, and security hardening of the Automation.AI component. You will learn how to deploy the AI engine, connect it to your PostgreSQL database, integrate it with large language models (LLMs) like OpenAI or Gemini, and securely extend its capabilities using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). By mastering these steps, you ensure your organization can safely leverage AI-driven scheduling, code assistance, and intelligent troubleshooting.

    What You Will Learn

    As AI revolutionizes IT operations, Automic Automation v26 further develops Automation.AI, the robust, LLM-agnostic engine designed to bring intelligent scheduling, code assistance, and advanced troubleshooting directly into your automated workflows. But powerful AI requires a secure, stable, and highly controlled foundation.

    Designed specifically for Automic Administrators and Infrastructure Engineers, this course takes you step-by-step through the backend deployment of the Automation.AI component. You will learn the end-to-end process of installing the infrastructure, configuring its dedicated PostgreSQL database, and securely integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI or Gemini.

    We dive deep into the mechanics of the Model Context Protocol (MCP), teaching you how to act as the bridge between Automic's REST APIs and the AI brain. You will leave this course with the practical skills needed to enforce password encryption, deploy TLS/SSL certificates, and manage granular provider permissions—ensuring your organization's AI integrations are as secure as they are powerful.

    What You Will Earn
