Create and configure production-grade ROSA clusters as part of a larger AWS customer’s footprint and then integrate applications on ROSA with AWS services while keeping a good security posture.
Deploying Production AWS ROSA Clusters: Creation, Configuration, and Application Integration with exam (CS230) teaches how to configure ROSA clusters as part of pre-existing AWS environments and how to integrate ROSA with AWS services commonly used by IT operations teams, such as Amazon CloudWatch. This course also teaches how to integrate applications deployed on ROSA with AWS services in a way that cluster administrators and platform engineers retain control of credentials and roles required by applications to access AWS services instead of exposing those credentials to application developers.
The Red Hat Certified Specialist in ROSA exam (EX229) is included in this offering.
