Dear all,

This thread is supposed to capture the discussion of the objectives draft
for exam 201-500. The current draft for the new version is available in the
LPI wiki:

  https://wiki.lpi.org/wiki/DevOps_Tools_Engineer_Objectives_V2.0

Please note that this document will be edited as the discussion goes.
Please use the history and diff features of the wiki to keep track of
changes.

The major change proposals can be summarized like this:

- In some topics where there is not 'the one' tool which is commonly used,
we removed the overage of a specific tool in the favor of a general
overview of the most prominent tools. This affects 701.4, CI/CD and 075.3,
Log Management.

- In topic 701.2, OpenStack tools are no longer used as a reference,
instead we focus on commonly used open source technologies.

- Objective 701.5, Software Composition, Licensing and Open Source was added

- Topic 702 was restructured to separate container management, container
orchestration using docker-compose and container building. Objective 702.3
(old) is gone, no more docker-machine and no more Docker Swarm

- Topic 703 (new) was added to cover Kubernetes basics

- Topic 703 (old), Machine Deployment, is completely gone and has already
been merged into the respective LPIC-3 exams

- Topic 704 (old), Ansible, is completely gone and will be moved into LPIC-2

- Objective 705.1 (new), Cloud Native Security was added

- Objective 705.1 (old), IT Operations and Monitoring was changed to 705.2
(new), Prometheus

- Objective 705.2 (old), ELK Stack, was changed 705.3 (new), generic log
management

- Objective 705.4 (new), generic tracing, was added.

There are, of course, numerous smaller changes, fixes and improvements.

Looking forward to your comments,

Fabian
