What is Red Hat OpenShift Administration?

Red Hat OpenShift Administration is a professional-level, 3-month instructor-led course that prepares you for the EX280 exam at INFOTICS Academy. Delivery: Live online / on campus. The fee is shared individually after you apply. Register your interest and we will tell you when the next intake opens.

Kubernetes has become the standard way to run containerized applications, and OpenShift is the enterprise platform many organizations choose to run it. This program 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.
