Through a series of deep-dive, step-by-step video modules, you will learn the exact procedures to deploy and configure the critical components that surround the Automation Engine. We will cover everything from setting up the Service Manager for remote process control to encrypting the Automic Web Interface (AWI) with TLS/SSL certificates. You will also learn how to deploy both Linux and Windows OS Agents to execute cross-platform workloads, and how to integrate modern, data-driven features like Analytics and Automation.AI. By the end of this course, you won't just know how to edit an .ini file—you will understand the architectural why behind each setting, enabling you to build a resilient orchestration platform that proactively solves real-world business challenges.

Target audience:
-
This course is primarily designed for System Administrators and Infrastructure Architects who are responsible for installing, securing, and maintaining the Automic Automation v26 platform.
-
Advanced Developers will also find immense value here, as understanding the underlying infrastructure, agent permissions, and API endpoints is critical for designing robust, scalable workflows.
Prerequisites:
-
Foundational knowledge of Windows and Linux operating system administration (including local security policies and file permissions).
-
Basic familiarity with relational databases (specifically PostgreSQL).
-
A conceptual understanding of network ports and TLS/SSL certificate chains.
What You Will Earn
Certification
Upon completion, you will receive:
- A certificate validating the course completion
- The Automic v26 Install Badge
Value: 1000 points
Course Objectives
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
- Install and network the Service Manager and its Windows-based Dialog interface to securely auto-start and remotely control Automation Engine processes.
- Deploy and secure the Automic Web Interface (AWI) using self-signed TLS/SSL certificate chains to ensure encrypted, secure user access across the enterprise.
- Provision, configure, and authorize OS Agents (Windows and Linux), applying the necessary local security policies and user rights to execute cross-platform automation workloads safely.
- Implement the Analytics Datastore and Backend via PostgreSQL to empower your operators with rich, visual dashboards and reporting metrics.
- Deploy Automation.AI and connect it to the Automation Engine via REST API, unlocking AI-driven assistance, code generation, and intelligent operational insights.
- Validate the end-to-end architecture by configuring a test client, establishing submission user credentials, and successfully monitoring a live job execution to completion.
