To get the most out of this book
You are expected to have general knowledge of Linux and operating systems. We assume experience in working with systems in a production environment and a business setting. This book covers high-level concepts rather than technical processes and so a working knowledge of Linux and operating systems is beneficial.
The software covered in this book are Linux-based operating systems such as Ubuntu, Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Suse.
No running system is necessary to use this book. This book focuses on high-level concepts and while knowledge of Linux and operating systems is very useful, there is no need to be hands-on with a running system while reading this book.
