OS220: OpenStack Administration & Operations
The OpenStack Administration and Operations course is a 3-day course designed to provide comprehensive experience in administering and operating the most common OpenStack components for implementing Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) in a private cloud; from image management to instantiation, network plugins and more. Upon completion of this course, you will have the skills necessary to pass the COA exam. All Mirantis OpenStack courses are vendor agnostic. Tasks run in an OpenStack environment, without adding any add-ons that could change how OpenStack works. Reference implementations are used, such as Logical Volume Manager (LVM) for block storage, Open vSwitch (OVS) for L2 networking or KVM/QEMU for the hypervisor.
