Why study this course

Learn to operate a Red Hat® OpenStack Platform private cloud and manage domain resources to secure and deploy modern, scalable cloud applications, networks and storage.

This course teaches you how to operate and manage a production Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) single-site overcloud. You will learn how to create secure project environments in which to provision resources and manage security privileges that cloud users need to deploy scalable cloud applications. You will learn about OpenShift integration with load balancers, identity management, monitoring, proxies, and storage. You will also develop more troubleshooting and Day 2 operations skills in this course.

This course is based on Red Hat OpenStack Platform 16.1.

What you’ll learn

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 customise advanced VM instances as applications, customise on deploy, and create scalable stacks of multiple VM applications.

Course subjects

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 customised 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 customisations.

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.
