OpenStack Training in Bologna

This course is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the OpenStack environment from both operational and administrative perspectives. After an initial overview of cloud computing principles, participants will set up their own OpenStack instance to perform practical administrative and operational tasks. The curriculum spans all fundamental components of OpenStack, progressing from architectural concepts to full-scale cloud administration. The course format emphasizes practical learning, with approximately 75% dedicated to hands-on workshops within a real-world OpenStack environment.

This course offers comprehensive training on OpenStack. It begins with an introduction to the system, progresses through hands-on workshops to provide practical knowledge for managing private clouds based on OpenStack, and concludes with topics on troubleshooting and advanced architectural concepts. The primary objective is to familiarize participants with the OpenStack ecosystem and establish a solid foundation for the further expansion and refinement of OpenStack clouds. The curriculum covers all necessary topics to prepare for the OpenStack Administrator Certification exam. Notably, 75% of the course is dedicated to hands-on workshops conducted in a real OpenStack training environment.

This intensive OpenStack training delivers 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 develop the skills needed to confidently administer and further develop enterprise OpenStack infrastructures.

This training offers an in-depth exploration of OpenStack networking. The curriculum begins with an introduction to OpenStack and its architecture, followed by a detailed examination of core OpenStack projects: the Identity service (Keystone), Image service (Glance), Compute service (Nova), and Block storage (Cinder). This establishes the context for understanding the networking environment within OpenStack, with a primary focus on the Networking project (Neutron). The course describes virtual network infrastructure based on the Open Virtual Network project, utilizing Open vSwitch and OpenFlow. Participants will learn the fundamental operations and architecture of OpenStack, while becoming familiar with the diverse networking technologies that underpin it. Additional insights will be provided regarding OVN, including its underlying flows, resources, and tools.

Customization options

The training can be condensed into a 2-day format, focusing on core aspects relevant to the customer. Alternatively, the training can be expanded to cover administrative, design, networking, and/or troubleshooting topics specific to OpenStack deployments. It is also possible to include coverage of other underlying SDN solutions, such as Linux Bridge or OvS.

This instructor-led, live training in Bologna (online or onsite) is aimed at DevOps engineers and developers who wish to deploy and manage OpenStack services on cloud infrastructures using Kubernetes.

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

• Deploy, configure, and manage MOS and its components.
• Access OpenStack APIs.
• Perform common OpenStack operations tasks (backup, restore, etc.).
• Upgrade OpenStack deployments.
