About this course
OpenStack is one of the most powerful open-source platforms for building and managing private and public clouds. Originally launched in 2010 as a joint initiative between RackSpace Hosting and NASA, OpenStack has rapidly grown into a global community project with contributions from over 500 companies. It is widely adopted by enterprises that want greater control, flexibility, and security over their cloud infrastructure.
This course is designed to introduce you to OpenStack and its key components while providing practical, hands-on experience. You will learn how OpenStack acts as a cloud operating system, managing compute, storage, and networking resources across a data center. By mastering OpenStack, you’ll be able to create a cloud environment that provides agility, scalability, and efficiency comparable to leading cloud providers, but with the added benefit of complete control over your infrastructure.
The course begins with an overview of OpenStack Series-I and its primary services, followed by a deep dive into each component, its architecture, and its role in the overall ecosystem. Step-by-step demonstrations will show you how to install, configure, and manage these components in real-world scenarios. Each module concludes with assessments to reinforce learning and help you track your progress.
By the end of this course, you will have the skills and confidence to deploy and manage an OpenStack-powered private cloud—giving you the flexibility of cloud technology while maintaining ownership and security of your data.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this course, learners will be able to:
• Understand the fundamentals of OpenStack and its architecture.
• Explain the role of core OpenStack services such as Compute, Networking, and Storage.
