Overview
Develop and deploy event-driven auto-scaling serverless applications and functions
Learn how to develop, deploy, and auto-scale event driven serverless applications on the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform. Red Hat OpenShift Serverless enables developers and Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) to focus on the core business logic of their applications and functions by delegating operational concerns and infrastructure services to the Red Hat® OpenShift Serverless platform.
This course is based on Red Hat OpenShift Serverless 1.23 and OpenShift Container Platform 4.10.
Following course completion, you will receive a 45-day extended access to hands-on labs for any course that includes a virtual environment.

Impact on the organization
Cloud-native serverless applications minimizes the effort spent configuring and scaling infrastructure, allowing developers and Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) to bring products and services to market quickly. Red Hat OpenShift Serverless allows organizations to decrease development time by focusing on the core business functions of their applications, and allows integration with both internal and external applications. Developers can rapidly build event-driven custom workflows using standard protocols and familiar developer tooling. SREs can automate tasks with simple functions that respond to events.
Impact of this training
As a result of attending this course, you will be able to accelerate the time to market for cloud-native applications by minimizing time spent on operational and scaling aspects. You will be able to achieve this through learning and demonstrating the following skills:
- Develop serverless applications locally, learn how to unit test them, build container images with using Containerfiles, and deploy the container image to a registry
- Deploy serverless applications to an OpenShift cluster from a container registry
- Auto-scale, version control and perform traffic splitting of serverless applications using Knative Serving
- Develop event-driven applications using Knative Eventing
- Develop serverless functions in multiple programming languages using Red Hat OpenShift Serverless Functions

How do QA’s virtual classroom courses work?
Our virtual classroom courses allow you to access award-winning classroom training, without leaving your home or office. Our learning professionals are specially trained on how to interact with remote attendees and our remote labs ensure all participants can take part in hands-on exercises wherever they are.
We use the WebEx video conferencing platform by Cisco. Before you book, check that you meet the WebEx system requirements and run a test meeting (more details in the link below) to ensure the software is compatible with your firewall settings. If it doesn’t work, try adjusting your settings or contact your IT department about permitting the website.
How do QA’s online courses work?
QA online courses, also commonly known as distance learning courses or elearning courses, take the form of interactive software designed for individual learning, but you will also have access to full support from our subject-matter experts for the duration of your course. When you book a QA online learning course you will receive immediate access to it through our e-learning platform and you can start to learn straight away, from any compatible device. Access to the online learning platform is valid for one year from the booking date.
All courses are built around case studies and presented in an engaging format, which includes storytelling elements, video, audio and humour. Every case study is supported by sample documents and a collection of Knowledge Nuggets that provide more in-depth detail on the wider processes.
When will I receive my joining instructions?
Joining instructions for QA courses are sent two weeks prior to the course start date, or immediately if the booking is confirmed within this timeframe. For course bookings made via QA but delivered by a third-party supplier, joining instructions are sent to attendees prior to the training course, but timescales vary depending on each supplier’s terms.
