Introduction to building and managing containers for deployment on a Kubernetes and OpenShift 4 cluster.

Red Hat OpenShift I: Containers & Kubernetes (DO180) introduces students to building and managing containers for deployment on a Kubernetes cluster. This course helps students build core knowledge and skills in managing containers through hands-on experience with containers, Kubernetes, and the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform needed for multiple roles, including developers, administrators and site reliability engineers.

This course is based on Red Hat OpenShift® Container Platform 4.10.

Course objectives

• Container and OpenShift architecture
• Creating containerized services
• Managing containers and container images
• Creating custom container images
• Deploying containerized applications on OpenShift
• Deploying multi-container applications

Target audience

• Developers who want to containerize software applications
• Administrators who are new to container technology and container orchestration
• Architects who are looking to use container technologies in software architectures
• Site Reliability Engineers who want to support their technology infrastructure using Kubernetes and OpenShift.
