Course Overview
This four-day course introduces students to the essential concepts and usage of the Operations Orchestration (OO) software. OO is part of the Micro Focus Operations Bridge, Data Center Automation, Hybrid Cloud Management X and Service Management Automation X.
In particular, the course covers how to use OO Workflow Designer as a flow development tool. Workflow Designer is a web-based environment for authoring flows; these flows are written in CloudSlang language and can be deployed in OO Central.
The course also covers Robotics Process Automation (RPA) capabilities, in particular, how to record RPA activities to automate repetitive, error-prone UI-based human actions on applications.
The course consists of focused, task-oriented lectures, text, and a series of detailed hands-on labs to teach the course material to the students. The hands-on labs for this course use version 2022.05 of the OO software.
