Certified OpenStack Administrator Course

Duration

60 hrs.

Level

Intermediate

The course is designed for professionals who wish to learn Red Hat Open Stack and use it to implement and manage Open Stack infrastructure. Open Stack is an open-source cloud computing platform that provides a comprehensive set of services for building and managing private and hybrid clouds. The course is also suitable for Systems Administrators, Technical & IT Professionals, Storage Administrators, Network Engineers. The course provides participants with a detailed understanding of the steps necessary to deploy an Open Stack environment from scratch. Through the process of manually deploying Open Stack rather than depending on deployment tools and scripts, students learn where to identify issues and how to overcome the hurdles for when things go wrong. This is a lab-intensive, project-based course, and objectives are achieved through hands-on learning.
