Introduction
Traditional storage options available to Kubernetes administrators are limited and lack versatility. Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation provides real advantages, even when backed by cloud storage such as AWS EBS or legacy datacenter storage arrays. Many companies rely on third-party solutions to manage backup and disaster recovery in production. However, proper planning to implement these solutions requires knowledge of the Kubernetes CSI and OADP APIs. This course walks the student through the recommended steps of configuring and managing storage services for containers and Kubernetes services.
The Red Hat Certified Specialist in OpenShift Data Foundation exam (EX370) is included in this offering.
