    Introduction

    This learning path is designed for administrators responsible for installing, configuring, and securely operating Automic Automation components. This path provides in-depth knowledge and practical skills for managing and optimizing the Automic Automation environment. The path covers advanced administrative tasks beyond basic fundamentals, focusing on maintaining a secure, stable, and efficient automation platform.

    Although some of these courses were originally created for version 21, the content remains relevant and applicable to the current version, providing administrators with the expertise needed for effective system operation and upgrade management in modern Automic Automation deployments.

    Automic Automation Administration Foundations

    This course helps administrators understand the architecture of the on-prem version of Automic Automation v21. It describes how to install Automic Automation and provides videos for each step in the sequence. 

    Automic Automation Administration Standard

    This course is focused on helping administrators configure Automic Automation so that users can start working with it. It is a deep dive in some of the most important tasks that an administrator must perform to configure and get an Automic Automation system started. 

    Automic Automation v26: Zero Downtime Upgrade (ZDU)

    In this course, we explain and demonstrate the Zero Downtime Upgrade (ZDU) process, a mechanism that allows you to transition from Automic Automation v24 to v26 while your mission-critical workflows continue to execute. We will bridge the gap between manual file preparation and the automated Wizard execution, ensuring you have a fail-safe path to the latest features.

    Automic Automation: Upgrading to Version 26

    Master the manual upgrade of Broadcom Automic Automation from version 24.x to 26. Designed for System Administrators and Automation Architects, this technical playlist provides a structured, four-phase roadmap to ensure a precise transition with minimal downtime. Participants will gain the expertise required to prepare environments, upgrade core engines, and modernize distributed components while maintaining production integrity.

    Automic Automation: Integrated Database Maintenance

    Is your Automation Engine database optimized for peak performance? This course teaches Automic administrators how to leverage the Integrated Database Maintenance suite to automate the data lifecycle without leaving the Automic Web Interface (AWI) or programmatically via the AE REST API. Move beyond legacy OS-based utilities and embrace a modern, REST-driven approach to system health.

    Automic Automation: Upgrading to Version 24

    This course is relevant for system administrators who are in charge of installing and upgrading Automic Automation. It guides you through and demonstrates the process to upgrade Automic Automation from version 21 to version 24 on a Windows platform. The Unix upgrade is virtually the same.

    Automic Automation Kubernetes Edition (AAKE)

    This course is intended for Automic Automation administrators with deep knowledge on Automic Automation. This course explains Automic Automation Kubernetes Edition (AAKE),  demonstrates how to deploy Automic Automation to an existing Kubernetes environment, and includes snippets of code that you can copy and paste to reuse it for your own deployment.

    Automic Automation TLS and Certificates

    This course addresses Automic Automation administrators who are responsible for configuring a secure system. With version 21, Automic Automation introduces comprehensive data encryption between the Automation Engine (AE) and some of its components. While previous versions supported TLS/SSL for some data transfers, this was optional in most of the cases.

    Automic Automation TLS Gateway

    This course addresses Automic Automation administrators who are responsible for setting up the system. Automic Automation's TLS Gateway facilitates the communication between TLS and non-TLS Agents. This video-based, self-paced course describes the TLS Gateway, explains how to configure and install it and demonstrates how it works.
