However, I think my…
1. Goal This lab’s goal was to set up an infrastructure in RLES, create a network for it to run on and install several different services, including monitoring solutions. Creating the infrastructure inside of RLES allows students to get used to the power of cloud computing and get us attuned to the type of software and infrastructure we could see in the real world. Being able to create, delete, copy and manage virtual machines gives us to the power to create an environment quickly. For example,…
