Overview

Build, expand and maintain cloud-scale, clustered storage for your applications with Red Hat Ceph Storage

Cloud Storage with Red Hat Ceph Storage (CL260) is designed for storage administrators and cloud operators who deploy Red Hat Ceph Storage in a production data center environment or as a component of a Red Hat OpenStack Platform or OpenShift Container Platform infrastructure.

Learn how to deploy, manage, and scale a Ceph storage cluster to provide hybrid storage resources, including Amazon S3 and OpenStack Swift-compatible object storage, Ceph-native and iSCSI-based block storage, and shared file storage.

This course is based on Red Hat Ceph Storage 5.0.

Skills Covered

  • Deploy and manage a Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster on commodity servers.
  • Perform common management operations using the web-based management interface.
  • Create, expand, and control access to storage pools provided by the Ceph cluster.
  • Access Red Hat Ceph Storage from clients using object, block, and file-based methods.
  • Analyze and tune Red Hat Ceph Storage performance.
  • Integrate Red Hat OpenStack Platform image, object, block, and file storage with a Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
  • Integrate OpenShift Container Platform with a Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster
