Course Overview

Top

Supporting the infrastructure for adoption of container-native applications, Kubernetes, and DevOps practices.

The Container Adoption Boot Camp for Administrators (DO700) immerses you in intensive, hands-on management of container-native applications deployed on Red Hat's implementation of Kubernetes, Red Hat® OpenShift® Container Platform, at enterprise scale.

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform enables rapid application development and deployment, as well as portability of an application across environments. The platform also offers simplified application scaling, administration, and maintenance of adapted or cloud-native applications.

This course is for those seeking to make a quantum leap in their digital transformation journey. Making this shift requires the ability to support a growing number of clusters, stakeholders, applications, and users to achieve large-scale deployments.

This Bootcamp is intended to provide container-novice administrators with the foundational and advanced skills needed to configure, manage, and automate the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform to deploy containerized applications that are highly available, resilient, and scalable.

The skills learned in this course can be applied to both self-managed editions of OpenShift as well as managed services editions like Red Hat OpenShift on AWS (ROSA) and Azure Red Hat OpenShift. 

This bootcamp is based on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.14.

Note: Starting January 2026 this course only exists in CR (classroom) if scheduled or Closed course modalities - No RHLS-Course for this course.
This course comes with RHLS-Standard (full RedHat courses catalog in E-learning self-paced) : As part of enrollment, participant will receive one year of Red Hat Learning Subscription Standard, which gives unlimited access to all of Red Hat courses online, and can take up to 5 unique exams and can retake any of those exams.
