Explore Virtualization and OpenStack certification and training courses — delivered live by certified instructors.
Virtualization and OpenStack is an open source cloud operating system that manages compute, storage, and networking resources across data centers through a unified API layer. Published by the OpenStack Foundation, it delivers Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) functionality, enabling organizations to build and operate scalable private and public clouds. It sits at the core of modern cloud infrastructure stacks, integrating with virtualization technologies like KVM to automate resource provisioning and management. Key components include Nova for compute instance lifecycle management, Neutron for network connectivity services, Cinder for block storage, and Swift for object storage. The Keystone service provides identity and access control, while Glance manages virtual machine images. Additional modules like Horizon deliver web-based dashboards, Heat enables application orchestration, Ceilometer supports telemetry, Trove offers database-as-a-service, and Sahara provisions data processing clusters. This technology is for cloud administrators, infrastructure engineers, and DevOps practitioners who design, deploy, and manage scalable cloud environments, enabling them to automate resource provisioning, ensure high availability, and customize infrastructure services through open APIs.
