The primary objective of the course is to help you pass the HashiCorp Certified: Vault Operations Professional certification. It also prepares you to answer MCQs and perform hands-on tasks on a Vault node/cluster. This course teaches you how to create a working Vault server configuration for various scenarios. You will learn how to monitor a Vault environment to ensure its smooth functioning. It also covers how to employ the Vault security model to safeguard your system. You will then learn how to build fault-tolerant Vault environments that can withstand failures and disruptions. Following that, you will understand the integration of the Hardware Security Module (HSM) in Vault to increase security. You will see how to scale Vault for performance and handle a larger workload and how to configure access control to ensure that users have the right permissions to access data. After that, you will see how to configure the Vault agent for the automation of Vault operations.
