Mastering OpenShift Administration: Your Path to EX280 Certification

Containerization and cloud-native platforms have reshaped the landscape of modern application deployment and management. Red Hat OpenShift, a powerful Kubernetes-based container platform, is rapidly becoming an industry standard for organizations of all sizes. For those seeking to excel in DevOps, site reliability engineering, or cloud infrastructure, achieving the Red Hat Certified Specialist in OpenShift Administration (EX280) credential is a transformative career step. DevOpsSchool’s OpenShift Training and Certification Course empowers candidates with hands-on skills and global recognition, under the expert guidance of Rajesh Kumar.


Why OpenShift? Why EX280 Certification?

OpenShift combines Docker and Kubernetes with a suite of developer tools, secure multi-tenancy, and powerful orchestration features. As organizations move to microservices and hybrid cloud, skilled OpenShift administrators are in high demand. The EX280 exam rigorously tests practical competencies in configuring and operating production-ready OpenShift clusters—making it a key credential for architects, administrators, and DevOps engineers.

Core Benefits of OpenShift:

  • Unified container management, scaling, and security
