Red Hat Certified Specialist in OpenShift Data FoundationPrivate: DevOp Track

Overview

Learn the essential skills required to design, implement, and manage a Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation cluster and perform day-to-day Kubernetes storage management tasks.

Traditional storage options available to Kubernetes administrators are limited and lack versatility. Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation provides real advantages, even when backed by cloud storage such as AWS EBS or legacy datacenter storage arrays. Many companies rely on third-party solutions to manage backup and disaster recovery in production. However, proper planning to implement these solutions requires knowledge of the Kubernetes CSI and OADP APIs. This course walks the student through the recommended steps of configuring and managing storage services for containers and Kubernetes services.

Following course completion, hands-on lab access will remain available for up to 45 days for any live course that includes a virtual environment.

Audience Profile

The intended audience for this course includes:

• Primary: Platform Administrators, System Administrators, Cloud Administrators, and other infrastructure-related IT roles who are responsible for managing and maintaining infrastructure for applications

• Secondary: Enterprise Architects, Site Reliability Engineers, DevOps Engineers, and other application-related IT roles who are responsible for designing infrastructure for applications

Prerequisites

Red Hat Certified Specialist in OpenShift Administration certification (EX280) or equivalent knowledge for the roles of Red Hat OpenShift cluster engineer or SRE

Red Hat Certified Systems Administrator certification (EX200) or equivalent knowledge of Linux system administration is recommended for all roles

While not required, students who have completed Red Hat OpenShift Administration III: Scaling Deployments in the Enterprise (DO380) will have advanced knowledge of the Red Hat OpenShift platform in preparation for implementing and working with Red Hat Openshift Data Foundation (formerly Red Hat OpenShift Container Storage)

Basic knowledge of Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform is recommended but not required

Basic knowledge of storage technologies, such as disk types, SAN, and NAS is recommended

At Course Completion
