OpenStack Administration Training Course

This instructor-led, live training in Uzbekistan (online or onsite) is designed for DevOps engineers and developers looking to deploy and manage OpenStack services on cloud infrastructures using Kubernetes.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Deploy, configure, and manage MOS along with its core components.
• Interact with OpenStack APIs.
• Execute essential OpenStack operational tasks, such as backup and restore.
• Upgrade OpenStack deployments.

This course aims to familiarize participants with the OpenStack environment from both operator and administrator perspectives. Following a concise introduction to cloud computing, students will receive their own OpenStack instance to perform practical operational and administrative tasks. The curriculum covers all fundamental components of OpenStack, ranging from general architecture to comprehensive cloud administration. Approximately 90% of the course consists of hands-on workshops conducted in a real OpenStack environment.

The course addresses all topics required for the Certified OpenStack Administrator exam, preparing participants both theoretically and practically. Furthermore, the program has been expanded to include additional insights on OpenStack nuances necessary for passing the exam. At the conclusion of the course, each participant will have the opportunity to assess their readiness through a mock COA exam.

This instructor-led, live training in Uzbekistan (online or onsite) is aimed at engineers, architects and managers who wish to deploy an OpenStack cloud to manage their Telecom infrastructure.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Plan, deploy, and administer OpenStack as a private cloud.
• Understand IaaS architecture and its implementation under OpenStack.
• Replace physical routers and servers with virtual machines running in a private cloud.
• Reduce infrastructure and maintenance costs through virtualization and cloud computing.
• Expedite the rollout of new services to customers.

This training program delivers a complete overview of OpenStack. It initiates with a system introduction, proceeds through practical workshops to build hands-on skills for managing OpenStack-based private clouds, and concludes with troubleshooting and advanced architectural concepts. The primary objective is to acquaint learners with the OpenStack ecosystem while establishing a robust foundation for further expansion and refinement of OpenStack cloud environments. The course content aligns with all topics required to successfully complete the OpenStack Administrator Certification exam.

This course is designed to achieve two primary objectives: to provide a comprehensive understanding of OpenStack architecture and to develop advanced troubleshooting skills. In the architecture section, participants will learn how to design hardware for both public and private clouds, establish a high-availability control plane, select appropriate flavor sizes, and manage cloud resource overcommitment effectively. A critical component of OpenStack architecture is gaining insights into the internals of Neutron (Networking Service). The course then transitions to troubleshooting methods for OpenStack clusters, covering general tips, network troubleshooting, and challenges related to core OpenStack services. Approximately 75% of the course involves hands-on workshops conducted in a real OpenStack training environment.

This program offers comprehensive training on OpenStack, beginning with a system introduction and progressing through practical workshops that cover managing private clouds based on OpenStack. The curriculum also includes troubleshooting and advanced architectural topics. The primary objective is to familiarize participants with the OpenStack ecosystem while providing a solid foundation for further expanding and refining OpenStack cloud infrastructure. The course covers all necessary subjects to prepare for the OpenStack Administrator certification exam. Notably, 75% of the training consists of hands-on workshops conducted in a real OpenStack environment.

This intensive OpenStack training provides practical, hands-on experience in deploying, managing, troubleshooting, and optimizing private cloud environments based on OpenStack. Designed as an extended bootcamp, the course covers core administration topics, real-world troubleshooting scenarios, and advanced architectural concepts aligned with the Certified OpenStack Administrator exam objectives. With 75% workshop-based learning in a live OpenStack lab, participants build the skills needed to confidently administer and further develop enterprise OpenStack infrastructures.

This course provides comprehensive training on OpenStack networking. It begins with an introduction to OpenStack and its architecture, then details the core OpenStack projects: Identity service (Keystone), Image service (Glance), Compute service (Nova), and Block storage (Cinder). This foundation helps describe the network environment within OpenStack, with a primary focus on the Networking project (Neutron). The course explains virtual network infrastructure, leveraging the Open Virtual Network project, Open vSwitch, and OpenFlow. The main objective is to help participants understand OpenStack's basic operations and architecture, while familiarizing them with the diverse networking technologies powering OpenStack. It further expands on OVN, including its underlying flows, resources, and tools.

Customization options

The training can be condensed into a 2-day session focusing on core aspects most relevant to the customer. Alternatively, it can be extended to cover administrative, design, networking, and/or troubleshooting topics related to OpenStack deployments. Other underlying SDN solutions, such as Linux Bridge or OvS, can also be included.

This course is designed for IT engineers and architects seeking solutions to deploy private or public IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) clouds using OpenStack.
It also offers IT managers a valuable opportunity to gain a high-level understanding of the capabilities that OpenStack can provide.

Before making a decision to implement OpenStack independently, conduct further research, or hire a third-party vendor, you can weigh the advantages and disadvantages by participating in our course.
This topic is also available as a personalized consultancy session.

Course objectives:

Understand the differences between Public Cloud and Private Cloud in terms of offerings and management

Acquire foundational knowledge of OpenStack

This course delivers hands-on expertise in OpenStack and private cloud security. It begins with a system introduction, followed by practical guidance on securing private clouds and hardening OpenStack installations. Throughout the training, participants explore core OpenStack modules, constructing virtual identity, image, network, compute, and storage resources while addressing key security considerations. Each attendee receives a dedicated training environment featuring a complete OpenStack setup tailored to a specific cloud architecture (such as storage or networking configurations). The curriculum is highly customizable to align with client requirements.

Customization Options
The program can be condensed into a 2-day intensive format focusing on essential aspects for the customer. Alternatively, it can be expanded to cover administrative, design, networking, and troubleshooting topics relevant to OpenStack deployments.

This instructor-led live training (available online or on-site) is designed for system administrators and infrastructure engineers who wish to design, deploy, and manage private OpenStack cloud infrastructure for enterprise environments.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to understand OpenStack architecture, deploy private cloud infrastructure, manage compute and storage resources, implement security with Keystone, and apply enterprise best practices.
