Getting Started with OpenShift for Developers

This workshop is intended to give you a hands-on introduction to using OpenShift® from the perspective of a developer.

Containers are a standardized way to package apps with all of their dependencies to simplify deployment and speed delivery. Unlike virtual machines, containers do not bundle to the operating system. Only the application code, run time, libraries, and settings are packaged inside of containers. Thus, containers are more lightweight, portable, and efficient as compared to virtual machines.

For developers looking to kickstart their projects, OpenShift enables efficient application development through streamlined workflows and validated integrations.

Agenda:

• Using the OpenShift command-line client and web console.
• Deploying an application using a pre-existing container image.
• Working with application labels to identify component parts.
• Scaling up your application in order to handle web traffic.
• Exposing your application to users outside of the cluster.
• Viewing and working with logs generated by your application.
• Accessing your application container and interacting with it.
• Giving access to other users to collaborate on your application.
• Deploying an application from source code in a Git repository.
• Deploying a database from the OpenShift® developer catalog.
• Configuring an application so it can access a database.
• Setting up webhooks to enable automated application builds.
