This course has a dual objective: to build a solid understanding of OpenStack architecture and to develop advanced troubleshooting capabilities. During the architecture module, participants will learn how to design hardware for both public and private clouds, configure a high-availability control plane, select appropriate instance flavors, and safely overcommit cloud resources. A key component of this module is gaining deep insight into the internals of Neutron, the networking service. The second part of the course introduces participants to troubleshooting methods for OpenStack clusters, ranging from general best practices and network diagnostics to addressing specific challenges within core OpenStack services. Approximately 75% of the course consists of hands-on workshops conducted in a real OpenStack training environment.
