Our team at work is looking for OpenStack training options. The training should cover
* overview of widely used OpenStack services * network architecture * installation and configuration * ongoing administration, maintenance, and troubleshooting * upgrading
We'd prefer workflows based around Puppet or Ansible, since we know those tools, but operational continuity is more important than the tools used.
We'd likewise prefer solutions oriented toward CentOS or RHEL, but, again, it's just a preference.
We've investigated kolla-ansible for deployment, but we're not adverse to changing toolsets if the upside is right.
I'd characterize our team as journeymen to expert system administrators. We specialize in supporting research groups. The training would be to provide skills and knowledge for our team to support OpenStack as a long-term in-house virtualization option.
I'd love to hear your first-hand experiences with any specific training offerings.
Thanks!
(Note: we have other virtualization solutions in place. OpenStack is specifically required by researchers whose wider scientific communities have built workflows for that environment. Suggestions to ditch OpenStack for OtherGreatSolution will be ignored.)
