TAK 103 | ADMIN SERVER MANAGEMENT

OBJECTIVES

This in-person course is designed to equip IT administrators with the foundational skills to effectively install, configure, manage, maintain, and federate TAK Servers. Participants will learn how to operate TAK Servers while ensuring availability, security, and performance.

In this course, we will focus on hands-on training to ensure that participants feel confident in independently conducting common tasks associated with the general operation and management of TAK Servers. Follow-along exercises and scenarios of varying complexity will be introduced to simulate issues and challenges that IT administrators are likely to encounter and be called on to resolve.

Participants will become proficient at:

  • Installing, configuring, and updating TAK Servers in a cloud or on-premises environment.

  • Applying security protocols and settings to safeguard operational data.

  • Managing user accounts and permissions based on roles and responsibilities.

  • Ensuring the integrity and reliability of stored geospatial information and real-time tracking data.

  • Monitoring server health and troubleshooting common issues.

  • Federating TAK Servers to enable interoperability.
