High Availability with Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform

Reference course outline

CL3322 days

Duration

2 days

This course uses the top open source clustering and high-availability solutions on the market and provides a comprehensive plan to connect them with Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform. Students will implement each of the services in a highly available manner and test failover scenarios. Students will use Pacemaker, Corosync, CMAN tools, and HAProxy to implement cluster and other high-availability tools.

Course content summary

  • High-availability basic concepts
  • Comprehensive plan for a highly available cloud
  • Cluster a Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform environment using high-availability designs and implementations
  • Validation of the highly available cloud
  • MariaDB Galera cluster for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform database
  • GlusterFS for Glance and Cinder

Note: High Availability with Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform is one of our emerging technology courses. These courses focus on Red Hat's newer, evolving technologies. Emerging technology courses are feature- and functionality-focused and are conducted like guided labs

Course Outline

Introduction to high availability

Define how high availability can secure and improve Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform services.

Deploying a high-availability cluster

Configure Pacemaker, Corosync and HaProxy for the OpenStack API services.

Configure Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform services

Install Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform and configure the API services.

Implement an active-passive MySQL cluster

Connect the MySQL database with the highly available architecture.

Implement an active-active Qpid broker

Set up and run a pool of message brokers to improve availability and reliability.

Testing the environment

Run a unit test protocol for every service, and review and validate the high-availability services.

Running failure scenarios

Fail various services and test high availability.

Implement an even more highly available cloud

Explore innovative ways to secure your cloud data using top open source clustering solutions like MariaDB Galera and GlusterFS, a Red Hat community storage project.
