Overview
This course equips IT professionals with essential skills to design, implement, and manage an OpenShift Data Foundation cluster, performing day-to-day Kubernetes storage management tasks. Participants will learn to configure and manage storage services for containers and Kubernetes services, ensuring applications have the necessary storage resources.
Objectives
By the end of this course, leaner will be able to:
- Describe the features and deployment architectures of OpenShift Data Foundation and their relation to Kubernetes storage APIs.
- Install an OpenShift Data Foundation cluster on an OpenShift cluster using the internal mode.
- Select and configure storage classes to meet application requirements.
- Configure applications to use object storage from OpenShift Data Foundation.
- Set up OpenShift Monitoring, Registry, and Logging to utilize storage from OpenShift Data Foundation.
- Back up and restore application data using Kubernetes CSI APIs.
- Monitor storage health metrics of an OpenShift Data Foundation cluster.
- Identify Ceph storage components for OpenShift Data Foundation and troubleshoot common issues.
Prerequisites
- Experience as Platform Administrators, System Administrators, Cloud Administrators, or similar infrastructure-related IT roles responsible for managing and maintaining application infrastructure.
- Alternatively, experience as Enterprise Architects, Site Reliability Engineers, DevOps Engineers, or similar application-related IT roles responsible for designing application infrastructure.
