Kubernetes has become the standard way to run containerised applications, and OpenShift is the enterprise platform many organisations choose to run it. This programme takes you from containers and the core Kubernetes objects to administering a production OpenShift cluster.

You learn to deploy and expose applications, manage configuration and secrets, provision persistent storage, control access with authentication and RBAC, set quotas and limits, work with Operators and troubleshoot failing workloads. The course follows the Red Hat DO180 to DO280 progression and prepares you for the EX280 practical exam.
