CLI-Based Management
CLI-Based Management refers to the practice of using command-line interface (CLI) tools to configure, monitor, and control systems, applications, or infrastructure. It involves executing text-based commands in a terminal or shell to perform administrative tasks, automate workflows, and manage resources efficiently. This approach is common in DevOps, system administration, and cloud computing for its precision, scriptability, and low resource overhead.
Developers should learn CLI-Based Management for tasks requiring automation, remote server administration, or infrastructure-as-code implementations, as it enables faster execution and integration with scripts. It is essential in environments like Linux servers, cloud platforms (e.g., AWS CLI), and container orchestration (e.g., kubectl), where GUI tools may be unavailable or less efficient. Mastery improves productivity in CI/CD pipelines, debugging, and resource management across distributed systems.
