Course Overview
The DO381 Red Hat OpenShift Administration III: Scaling Deployments in the Enterprise with Exam is an advanced training program by Red Hat designed for platform engineers, system administrators, and cloud administrators responsible for managing large-scale OpenShift environments. This course prepares candidates for the Red Hat Certified Specialist in Scaling OpenShift Deployments exam (EX380), a performance-based certification that validates expertise in enterprise-grade cluster management. It also serves site reliability engineers (SREs) and DevOps professionals tasked with ensuring high availability, scalability, and automation across hybrid cloud infrastructures. With over 1,500 enterprises globally adopting Red Hat OpenShift for secure, scalable container orchestration, demand for certified specialists continues to grow, particularly in regulated sectors like finance, healthcare, and government.
Participants in the DO381 Red Hat OpenShift Administration III: Scaling Deployments in the Enterprise with Exam engage with core technologies including Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.14, OpenShift GitOps (based on Argo CD), OpenShift APIs for Data Protection (OADP), OpenShift Logging with Loki, and enterprise identity providers such as LDAP and OpenID Connect (OIDC). The hands-on lab environment uses Red Hat’s cloud-based sandbox, where learners configure machine pools, implement cluster partitioning, automate application deployments via GitOps workflows, and set up log aggregation and monitoring systems. A key real-world scenario involves designing a secure, multi-tenant cluster with dedicated infrastructure nodes, automated backups using OADP, and role-based access control (RBAC) integrated with external authentication systems, simulating production challenges faced in enterprise IT operations.
By completing the DO381 Red Hat OpenShift Administration III: Scaling Deployments in the Enterprise with Exam, professionals prepare for the Red Hat Certified Specialist in Scaling OpenShift Deployments (EX380) certification, a credential that counts toward the prestigious Red Hat Certified Architect (RHCA) designation and is recognized across global IT organizations.
