This course is designed with two primary objectives: to provide a robust understanding of OpenStack architecture and to develop advanced troubleshooting capabilities. In the architectural component, participants will learn how to design hardware infrastructure for both public and private clouds, establish a high-availability control plane, select appropriate flavor sizes, and safely implement resource overcommitment, among other key topics. A thorough comprehension of Neutron (the Networking Service) internals is another critical element of the OpenStack architecture curriculum. Additionally, attendees will be introduced to various troubleshooting methodologies for OpenStack clusters, ranging from general best practices and network diagnostics to addressing specific challenges within core OpenStack services. Approximately 75% of the course consists of hands-on workshops conducted in a real OpenStack training environment.
