Red Hat OpenStack Administration I: Core Operations for Domain Operators (CL110) - RHLS-Course [CL110LS]

OVERVIEW

Learn how to install configure, use, and maintain Red Hat OpenStack Platform

Red Hat OpenStack Administration I (CL110) is designed for system administrators who are intending to implement a cloud computing environment using Red Hat OpenStack® Platform.

This course is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 8.

This course will teach students to install a proof-of-concept, configure, use, and maintain Red Hat OpenStack Platform. This course covers the core services: identity (Keystone), block storage (Cinder), image (Glance), networking (Neutron), compute and controller (Nova), and dashboard (Horizon).

This course is designed for Linux system administrators, cloud administrators, and cloud operators interested in, or responsible for, maintaining a private or hybrid cloud.

OBJECTIVES

As a result of attending this course, you will understand the architecture of a private or hybrid OpenStack cloud infrastructure and will be able to create, manage, and troubleshoot software-defined network services, resources, servers, and applications for dynamically scalable business environments.

You should also be able to demonstrate these skills:

• Design and implement on-demand projects, software-defined networks, and virtual machine instances.
• Deploy a proof-of-concept OpenStack installation for practice, development, demonstration, and testing, back in your own home or business computing environment.
• Manage software-defined networks such as subnets, routers, floating IP addresses, images, flavors, security groups/rules, and block and object storage.
• Create and customize advanced VM instances as applications, customize on deploy, and create scalable stacks of multiple VM applications.
