DO280 | EX280 Red Hat OpenShift Administration II Course Training Overview

Operate production Kubernetes with our Classroom and Online Red Hat OpenShift Administration (DO280 | EX280) Training at WebAsha Technologies. Aligned with OpenShift 4.18, this program builds the hands-on skills validated by the performance-based EX280 exam.

Training Overview:

The DO280 EX280 training focuses on configuring and managing a production OpenShift cluster: authentication and RBAC, resource access control, networking, application deployment, and pod scheduling and scaling. Real labs on OpenShift 4.18 build the confidence to perform under exam conditions.

Intended Audience:

This course is ideal for system administrators, cluster operators, SREs, DevOps and platform engineers who deploy and manage applications on OpenShift and want an official Red Hat credential.

Topics Covered:
  • Manage the OpenShift Cluster: Operate an OpenShift 4.18 cluster with the web console and oc CLI.
  • Users, Groups & RBAC: Configure authentication, manage users and groups, and assign roles.
  • Control Access to Resources: Apply role-based access control and security context constraints.
  • Configure Networking: Manage cluster networking, network policies, services and routes.
  • Deploy & Manage Applications: Create, update and troubleshoot applications on the cluster.
  • Pod Scheduling: Control where pods run with node selectors, affinity and taints.
  • Cluster Scaling: Configure scaling of applications and cluster resources.
  • Manage Storage: Attach persistent storage to applications running on OpenShift.
Requirements:

Learners should be comfortable with the Linux command line and basic containers/Kubernetes concepts. Online participants need a stable internet connection and a laptop/desktop for the live OpenShift cloud labs, which are essential for the EX280 skills.

Pre-Requisites:

Red Hat recommends container experience and DO180 (Red Hat OpenShift Administration I) or equivalent Kubernetes/OpenShift skills. RHCSA-level Linux knowledge is helpful.

Career Benefits:

EX280-certified professionals are in strong demand as enterprises standardise on Kubernetes and OpenShift. In India, packages typically range from ₹6 LPA to ₹32+ LPA in roles such as OpenShift Administrator, Platform Engineer and SRE, with a clear path toward the RHCA.

My DO280 EX280 Red Hat OpenShift Administration II journey with WebAsha gave me exactly the practical depth I was looking for. The syllabus covered containers, pods, deployments, operators, routes and CI/CD pipelines on OpenShift and Kubernetes in real depth rather than skimming the surface. Hands-on practice on real Red Hat systems built genuine confidence, not just theory. I cleared the certification on my first attempt and highly recommend DO280 EX280 Red Hat OpenShift Administration II at WebAsha.

After a few years as a Data Entry Operator, I decided it was time for a real change and joined WebAsha's DO280 EX280 Red Hat OpenShift Administration II training. Cloud labs, recorded sessions and after-hours doubt support meant I could learn seriously alongside my job.

I joined WebAsha for DO280 EX280 Red Hat OpenShift Administration II to level up my skills, and the experience exceeded my expectations. I could choose between online and classroom training, and both were equally well organised. The cloud labs were available round the clock, so I could practise assignments whenever I had time. Flexible batch timings let me attend alongside my job without any stress. We worked hands-on with containers, pods, deployments, operators, routes and CI/CD pipelines on OpenShift and Kubernetes, which made every concept stick. Minor scheduling tweaks aside, the training quality and lab practice were genuinely excellent.
