Configuring Application Builds in Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform

Rapid application iteration and development often requires changing essential application configuration, such as database connection. This course will teach you how to manage application configuration and database connection in OpenShift.

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform provides a strong focus on the developer experience, enabling rapid prototyping and high speed of development. One of the main focuses of OpenShift is to remove the necessity of writing simple YAML configuration files that are required by Kubernetes. While developers can write complex configuration files, OpenShift removes the need for boilerplate YAML deployment files. In this course, you will learn how to use OpenShift for fast deployment and application iteration. First, you will learn about rebuilding your application from source code, such as when you merge a branch into the master branch of the application source code. Next, you will learn about configuration settings and management for your application. Lastly, you will learn how to connect your application to a database running in OpenShift, such as for testing or prototyping. By the end of this course, you will be able to fully deploy your multi-tiered application into OpenShift.
