Course Overview

The OpenShift Infrastructure course by Koenig Original is designed for platform administrators, DevOps engineers, and site reliability engineers (SREs) seeking to master enterprise-grade OpenShift environments. This training prepares candidates for the Red Hat Certified System Administrator in OpenShift (EX280) exam, a performance-based certification validating real-world cluster management skills. With over 90% of Fortune 50 financial institutions and more than 6,000 global organizations adopting Red Hat OpenShift, demand for certified professionals continues to grow. The course equips learners with the expertise to secure, scale, and maintain production clusters across hybrid cloud environments, addressing critical operational challenges in modern cloud-native infrastructure.

Participants gain hands-on experience with core technologies including Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.6, Kubernetes Operators, Helm, Kustomize, OpenShift Virtualization (KubeVirt), and OpenShift Container Storage (OCS). The lab environment is hosted on the Red Hat Training Cloud, providing access to real-world infrastructure for cluster provisioning and management. Students configure masters and nodes, deploy multi-container applications using custom images, implement HTPasswd authentication, and manage role-based access control. A key project involves deploying OpenShift Virtualization to run traditional virtual machines alongside containers, performing live migrations, and integrating storage and network policies—mirroring real-world hybrid workload scenarios in production environments.

This Koenig Original course prepares learners for the Red Hat Certified System Administrator in OpenShift (EX280) certification, a credential recognized across the industry for validating production-ready OpenShift skills and contributing to Red Hat Certified Architect (RHCA) status. Certified professionals report a 20–30% salary increase, with mid-level OpenShift administrators earning between $110,000 and $145,000 annually in North America. Koenig differentiates itself with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling, official Red Hat courseware, and optional 1-on-1 mentoring, ensuring consistent access to high-quality training. Graduates are positioned to lead OpenShift cluster operations, drive digital transformation, and advance into senior cloud architecture or DevOps engineering roles within enterprise IT environments.
