Multicluster Management with Red Hat OpenShift Platform Plus (DO480)
Multicluster Management with Red Hat OpenShift Platform Plus teaches you how to efficiently manage and secure multiple OpenShift clusters across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. You’ll learn to centralize cluster operations, enforce security policies, and automate application deployments using Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management (ACM) and Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security (ACS).
Course Overview
The Multicluster Management with Red Hat OpenShift Platform Plus course equips you with the skills to manage a diverse range of applications across multiple OpenShift clusters. In addition, you’ll learn how to automate application placement based on capacity and criticality, while also ensuring cluster configurations comply with governance and security policies, and furthermore, streamline operations using DevOps best practices.
Moreover, this course is built on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.10 and Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management 2.4, thereby providing hands-on experience in managing and securing OpenShift clusters at scale.
Course Content Summary
In this course, you’ll learn how to deploy and manage multiple OpenShift clusters using Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes (RHACM). To begin with, you’ll set up RHACM in a hub cluster and add managed clusters to it. Next, you’ll define and enforce cluster configuration policies, ensuring compliance and automatically detecting and correcting any deviations.
Additionally, you’ll explore how to visualize and compare cluster settings, apply application placement policies, and manage application resources across multiple clusters. Furthermore, the course covers deploying Red Hat Quay for container image management and Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security (RHACS) for Kubernetes security. Finally, you’ll integrate Quay and RHACS with RHACM to create a centralized, secure, and automated multicluster management solution.
