Course Overview

The OpenStack Integrator course by OpenStack is an intermediate-level program designed to equip IT professionals with the skills needed to deploy, manage, and troubleshoot OpenStack cloud environments. It specifically prepares learners for the Certified OpenStack Administrator (COA) exam, the official certification from the Open Infrastructure Foundation. This training is ideal for cloud administrators, infrastructure engineers, and DevOps specialists responsible for operating OpenStack clouds in enterprise or service provider settings. With over 50% of global telecom providers leveraging OpenStack for NFV and cloud infrastructure, demand for certified integrators continues to grow across industries requiring scalable, open-source cloud solutions.

Participants engage with core OpenStack services including Nova (compute), Neutron (networking), Cinder (block storage), Glance (image management), Keystone (identity), and Heat (orchestration), using both the Horizon dashboard and command-line tools. The course features 21 hours of hands-on laboratory work within a dedicated OpenStack lab environment, where students build a functional private cloud from scratch. Key activities include installing and configuring KVM-based virtualization, deploying virtual networks with security groups and floating IPs, managing image repositories, and automating instance provisioning via Heat templates. A real-world scenario involves setting up a multi-tenant cloud with role-based access control, monitoring, and SLA-compliant resource allocation, ensuring readiness for production deployments.

By completing the OpenStack Integrator course, candidates gain comprehensive preparation for the Certified OpenStack Administrator (COA) certification, recognized globally as the standard for OpenStack operational proficiency. COA-certified professionals report average salary increases of 20–30%, with cloud roles averaging $110,000 annually in North America. Koenig Solutions enhances this training with Guaranteed-to-Run batches, official curriculum alignment, and instructor-led mock exams that simulate both theory and lab components of the COA. Graduates emerge fully prepared to design, integrate, and maintain enterprise-grade OpenStack clouds, positioning them for advanced roles in cloud architecture and infrastructure leadership.
