About The Lab
Prerequisites
Lab Architecture
The lab architecture features a locally hosted environment managed by CodeReady Containers (CRC) for rapid deployment of an OpenShift cluster. The OpenShift Dashboard serves as a user-friendly interface, while Kubernetes infrastructure underpins cluster management. OpenShift enhances Kubernetes with enterprise features, and integration layers add monitoring, CI/CD, and security tools. Developers benefit from a suite of tools within OpenShift for streamlined application development and deployment. This architecture balances simplicity with powerful capabilities, offering users an immersive experience in container orchestration and cluster management.
