Course Prerequisites
To successfully undertake training in the Introduction to OpenShift Applications course, participants should ideally have the following minimum prerequisites:
- Basic understanding of software development concepts, such as source code, version control, and application development.
- Familiarity with command-line tools and operating systems, such as Linux or Unix.
- Knowledge of basic Git operations, including cloning a repository, committing changes, and pushing updates.
- Experience with a text editor or Integrated Development Environment (IDE), like Visual Studio Code, for writing and editing code.
- An introductory-level knowledge of container technologies, specifically Docker, to comprehend how applications are packaged and isolated.
- Awareness of basic web application architectures and components (e.g., front-end, back-end, databases).
- A desire to learn about deploying and managing applications on a cloud platform, specifically Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform.
No previous experience with Red Hat OpenShift is required. However, it is beneficial for students to be comfortable with the fundamentals of containerization and microservices architecture.
