Course Summary

Home > Courses >OpenStack >OpenStack Cloud Architecture and Deployment

The OpenStack Cloud Architecture and Deployment training course focuses on helping developers, system administrators, and network administrators get in-depth, hands-on knowledge of the OpenStack architecture and advanced features. Included in the course is an examination of advanced networking, storage and HA solutions.

The OpenStack Cloud Architecture and Deployment course begins with an overview of the OpenStack cloud components and an in-depth examination of the OpenStack Cloud Reference architecture, including the roles and best practices for scalability. With the foundation laid, the OpenStack Cloud Architecture and Deployment training course then transitions into an infrastructure discussion, with an overview of managing guest virtual machines, software defined networks, distributed storage, and HA in the cloud. The course concludes with a discussion about OpenStack Cloud Security.
