This book takes an Infrastructure engineer with PowerShell and Bash coding experience through learning Python. It goes through how Python can be used to code Cloud Automation within products like CloudBolt's CMP or use standalone code to provision cloud-based infrastructure in Private and Public clouds. There are other software options within the market, and of course, you, as a Cloud Automation Engineer are free to develop it all yourself, although that is a daunting task considering all of the touch points. Join us as we unravel the tapestry of Cloud Automation, unveiling its transformative potential in driving efficiency, agility, and scalability across VMware, OpenStack, AWS, Azure, and GCP landscapes. Many Infrastructure engineers may have worked within environments where they are siloed into departments who specialize e.g. Linux engineering or Windows Administrators where the exposure to only Bash with UnixLinux or PowerShell with Windows. Understanding these scripting languages not only unlocks the potential for system administration but also lays the groundwork for transitioning to more advanced languages like Python for cloud automation. Python is known for its versatility and ease of use, making it an ideal language for a wide range of tasks, including automation. With CloudBolt, where automation plays a pivotal role in managing diverse cloud resources, Python's flexibility allows users to create custom integrations, plugins, and automation scripts tailored to specific needs. Python's extensive libraries and modules facilitate seamless integration with various APIs, tools, and services—essential components when working within a CMP like CloudBolt.
