Episode 73 — Working with Templates — OS and Solution-Based Templates
In this episode, we examine how templates accelerate cloud deployment by providing predefined configurations for operating systems and entire solution stacks. OS templates deliver ready-to-run environments with baseline settings, while solution-based templates package multiple components—such as application servers, databases, and storage—into a single deployment artifact.
We also cover the benefits of templates in enforcing standardization, reducing human error, and shortening provisioning times. For the Cloud+ exam, understanding template selection and customization is key to answering deployment and automation questions accurately.
