Overview

Build advanced skills for performing Red Hat OpenStack Platform day 2 operations and management of hybrid cloud infrastructure

Red Hat OpenStack Administration II: Day 2 Operations for Cloud Operators (CL210) is designed for cloud operators, service administrators, and automation engineers who operate and manage a full-featured hybrid and private cloud-computing environment using Red Hat OpenStack Platform. You will learn how to manage, monitor, troubleshoot, and scale a Red Hat OpenStack Platform infrastructure. This course focuses on using the OpenStack Client command-line user interface to configure metrics, policies, and architecture in order to support enterprise cloud applications and daily operations.

This course is based on Red Hat OpenStack version 16.1 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 8.2

Duration
