Course Overview

Containers, Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift Technical Overview (DO080) by Red Hat is a foundational on-demand course designed for IT professionals seeking to understand containerization and orchestration technologies. While not tied to a specific certification exam, DO080 serves as a critical entry point for roles such as DevOps Engineers, Application Developers, and System Administrators aiming to work with modern cloud-native platforms. With 93% of organizations either using or evaluating Kubernetes in 2024, according to the CNCF Annual Survey, demand for container skills has become essential across industries. This course introduces core concepts of Linux containers, Kubernetes, and Red Hat OpenShift, making it ideal for individuals with no prior experience who want to build expertise in deploying scalable, containerized applications.

The course covers key technologies including Linux containers, Kubernetes, Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.12, Helm, source-to-image (S2I), and OpenShift Operators. Through hands-on learning, students gain practical experience interfacing with OpenShift via both the web console and command-line tools, simulating real-world administration tasks. Learners explore how to create an OpenShift cluster, deploy containerized applications using automated build pipelines, and manage access control within the platform. A central lab scenario involves deploying a multi-tier application on OpenShift, configuring services, and managing nodes using Operators—providing insight into how enterprises automate operations at scale. These exercises are conducted in a browser-accessible lab environment, allowing immediate application of concepts without local setup.

By completing DO080 - Containers, Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift Technical Overview, learners prepare for advanced Red Hat training paths, including the Red Hat Certified Specialist in Containers and Kubernetes (EX180) certification, which is recognized globally for validating enterprise Kubernetes skills. Professionals with these competencies report average salaries exceeding $120,000 in North America, reflecting strong market demand. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning journey with Guaranteed-to-Run batches, official Red Hat courseware, and flexible 1-on-1 training options, ensuring personalized attention. Upon completion, students are positioned to pursue roles in cloud-native development, DevOps, or platform engineering, paving the way for long-term careers in enterprise digital transformation.
