Learn to operate and manage a Red Hat OpenStack Platform private cloud, with hands-on practice in deploying secure, scalable application environments. This course equips participants with the skills to administer overcloud domains, provision virtual resources, manage networks and storage, and implement security controls using both graphical and command-line tools. They will also explore OpenShift integration and gain practical experience in customising instances and deploying multi-tier applications.
Learning Outcomes:
Understand the architecture of a private or hybrid Red Hat OpenStack cloud
Manage projects, users, networks, and storage in a multitenant environment
Deploy scalable applications using templates and customised instances
Apply security controls including role-based access and key-based authentication
Operate OpenStack services using web-based and CLI tools
Evaluate overcloud design, placement strategies, and instance lifecycle management
Key Topics:
OpenStack personas and overcloud architecture
Multitenant project and user management
Software-defined networking and instance security
Block, object, and shared storage management
VM customisation with cloud-init and application stacks
Cloud application placement and availability zones
Introduction to Red Hat OpenStack Platform
Describe OpenStack personas, launch an instance, and describe the OpenStack components and architecture.
Manage application projects in a multitenant cloud
Create and configure projects with secure user access and sufficient resources to support cloud user application deployment requirements.
Manage OpenStack networking
Describe how IP networks are implemented in OpenStack, including fundamental TCP/IP stack behavior, software-defined networking elements, and the common types of networks available to self-service cloud users.
Configure resources to launch a non-public instance
Configure the requisite resource types for launching a basic non-public instance, including vCPUs, memory, and a system disk image, and launch an instance of an application component that runs in a tenant network with no public access.
Configure virtual machine system disks
Identify the available choices for configuring, storing and selecting block-based virtual machine (VM) system disks, including the choice of ephemeral or persistent disks for specific use cases.
Provide additional storage strategies
Identify the available choices for additional cloud storage techniques, including object-based storage, network file sharing, and volumes sourced from a file sharing service.
Configure resources to launch an instance with public access
Identify and configure the additional resource types required to launch instances with public access for specific use cases, including networking and access security elements.
Automate customized cloud application launches
Configure and deploy a typical multi-tier cloud application stack, defined as an architected template of scalable VM instances, including per-instance launch customizations.
Manage cloud application placement
Introduce overcloud layouts more complex than a single site, and explain the management resources to control the placement of launched instances, including segregation elements such as cells and availability zones, and placement attributes such as requisite compute node resources.
Note: Course outline is subject to change with technology advances and as the nature of the underlying job evolves.
