Free Linux Foundation on edX

So the Linux Foundation has released a number of it's training courses for free on EdX. They are introductory and overview type classes to just wet your appetite.

LFS151 - Introduction to Cloud Infrastructure Technologies. This one doesn't go deep (Introduction after all) but it goes pretty wide and I think does a good job of touching on all of the current/popular Cloud Infrastructure options. Unless your well versed in all of them it's worth your time to watch it at faster than normal speed.

LFS152 - Introduction to OpenStack. I'm about 70% through this one. Again, it's an Introduction but it does give you the information and tools necessary to start playing with OpenStack in a directed fashion.

The other two are:

LFS101 - Introduction to Linux
LFS161 - Introduction to DevOps: Transforming and Improving Operations.

Haven't watched them but I'd guess they will be of similar quality to the others. If your new to DevOps, Linux and/or Cloud I'd recommend them with no hesitation. Will watch them over the weekend and post a retraction if I'm wrong :)
