Red Hat OpenShift Administration II: Configuring a Production Cluster Virtual Training

As a result of attending this course, students will be able to perform the set of tasks that OpenShift cluster administrators are expected to perform in their daily jobs for on-premises, cloud-based, and vendor-managed clusters, including enabling add-on operators. Students will also be able manage multi-tenant permissions for different roles and configure applications that require privileged access to cluster and host resources.

Impact on the organization

This course is intended to develop the skills needed to manage Red Hat OpenShift clusters that are secure and multi-tenant, enabling applications that are scalable, resilient, and highly available.

Red Hat OpenShift is an enterprise-hardened application platform based on Kubernetes. It enables DevOps practices such as Continuous Delivery as well as portability of applications and operational processes across cloud providers and traditional data centers.

Kubernetes provides a common set of APIs and abstractions that enable application portability across cloud providers and traditional data centers. Red Hat OpenShift adds portability of operational processes across these deployment targets.

Red Hat OpenShift clusters can also be deployed as managed services where an external SRE team shares the responsibility of managing clusters and applications with a customer's IT operations team.

• Red Hat System Administration I (RH124), or equivalent skills managing Linux systems and servers from the Bash shell.
• Red Hat OpenShift I: Containers & Kubernetes (DO180 v4.12), or equivalent skills deploying and managing Kubernetes applications using the OpenShift web console and command-line interfaces.
