We have created a home library landing page and multiple specific product library landing
pages for the content we develop using the Oracle Learning Library platform.
The home library landing page creates a single source for finding all our other product pages
and has links to them and other useful resources.
Because the OLL, or Oracle Learning library platform has multiple ways to find content,
we created two different types of pages for each product.
Through these various product library pages you can access hundreds of free videos covering
the various Oracle Linux OS and virtualization products.
And there is an extensive range of free tutorials and real hands on labs for practicing the
skills learned from the videos.
When creating these pages their OLL link generated by using the system is let’s say a bit abstract,
so we have also created simple redirect links which are easy to remember.
All the links use the same www.oracle.com/goto/ and then a simple and easy to remember final
slug to the address.
For example, to get this home landing page we are currently looking at, which also takes
you to all the other product pages, you simply use the link www.oracle.com/goto/linuxlearninglibrary.
So here we see the home landing page for our Linux Learning Library.
At the top is listed the types of content we are developing for, and each has a short
description of what our content does.
Under this are the links to each of the product library landing pages, where you find all
the free content we have developed for the product, and a lot more.
Hovering over the name of the Oracle Linux 8 link, you can see the simple goto redirect
link created.
So these links are easy to use in any blogs, documents, sites or emails where you want
people to avail of all our free content.
Clicking on this link it brings us to the product's library page.
Scrolling down we see there is a very long list of free videos covering various important
and relevant subjects for the product.
For example if we click on the Installing Oracle Linux link, we are taken to a launch
page where you can watch the video, or click to watch it on YouTube.
Remember that you can also find all this video material directly on YouTube.
All of our videos are posted and free to view on YouTube, so this library page provides
an easy to use index of the content and a single page source for accessing the content.
Also, there are links to the tutorials and free luna labs we have built where you can
practice what you saw in the video in a free live Oracle Cloud Infrastructure environment.
Clicking on the link, we are taken to the tutorial page, which has all the steps you
will follow documented.
So, if you want to practice in your own cloud environment, then off you go.
But if you want a free real generated environment, then simply click on the link always at the
top of the tutorial page and go directly to the lab.
The labs are completely self contained, so no cloud account, or services or own infrastructure
is needed to use them.
Just click on the Launch Lab button, and you are in, no questions, no set up required.
When the lab spins up you simply start following the guided steps.
Remember that when you complete the lab, the lab environment is terminated so the resources
are returned to the lab platform pool of resources.
Again, if you exit a lab and go back in again you are actually starting up a new lab, so
you can do the labs as many times as you want, they are free as I said.
Returning to the library page, if I scroll down you can see we have developed a comprehensive
amount of content for, for instance, the Oracle Linux product.
Actually we have created, and posted to YouTube, hundreds of videos for the various products
we develop for.
With new and updated videos being uploaded each week.
In addition there are new labs being developed and launched to Luna each month.
When updated videos are published the links will point to the new video, so you will always
be seeing links to the latest content on these pages.
You don’t need to save any links, or the links won’t change in the future, the video
content simply changes in the background.
That’s the end of the video, thanks for watching.
