- [Instructor] To follow this course about Red Hat OpenShift, it is recommended to have some basic knowledge about cloud-native concepts and to have some tools ready at hand. Let's enumerate some basic knowledge required for this course. Students should be familiar with Docker and containers, how to work with Docker files, how to build, run and manage container images and how to pull and push from a container registry. Red Hat OpenShift is based on Kubernetes. For this reason, students must feel comfortable deploying applications to Kubernetes and how to perform basic administration tasks. You do not need to be a Certified Kubernetes Administrator, or CKA, but it will certainly help you. In particular, you should be familiar with Kubernetes manifests in YAML format and how to use the kubectl tool with them. Finally, you should be comfortable in working with Git repositories and with GitHub. This course contains many practical examples and guides to follow along during your discovery of Red Hat OpenShift. Students should use a computer running Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS, or Linux. Students should have Git installed. They should also have a container management tool installed, such as Podman or Docker. Finally, a GitHub account will give you access to the code repository for this course and the Red Hat Developer account will give you access to download OpenShift Local in your computer. Speaking about the GitHub repository for this course, it is organized using a separate branch for each video. You can use the branch menu to view individual branches directly on GitHub. The README file on the main branch provides clickable links to each branch, and of course, you can clone the repository in your computer and use the Git checkout command to switch between branches. To get the knowledge required to follow this course, we recommend the following ones on LinkedIn Learning: "Learning Docker" by Carlos Nunez, "Learning Kubernetes" by Kim Schlesinger and "Learning Git and GitHub" by Ray Villalobos.
