MODERN OPENSHIFT OPERATIONS AND ENGINEERING

Deploying applications is only the beginning. Running them reliably at scale is where the real engineering challenge begins.

Modern OpenShift Operations and Engineering is a deep, operations-focused guide that teaches how to manage, scale, secure, and optimize OpenShift platforms in real-world production environments.

Building directly on modern application deployment practices, this book shifts the focus from development to platform ownership covering the tools, principles, and decision-making required to operate Kubernetes systems effectively.

Rather than presenting idealized workflows, this book explores the realities of production systems, including failure scenarios, performance bottlenecks, scaling challenges, and operational trade-offs.

Inside this book, you will learn how to:

• Design and manage resilient OpenShift clusters

• Implement GitOps workflows and declarative infrastructure

• Monitor systems using metrics, logging, and distributed tracing

• Handle failures, incidents, and system degradation

• Secure clusters and enforce policies at scale

• Optimize performance and resource utilization

• Automate platform operations using operators and pipelines

• Manage multicluster and hybrid cloud environments

The content is grounded in real operational scenarios helping you understand not just how systems work, but how they behave under pressure and how to respond effectively.

This book is written for DevOps engineers, site reliability engineers, platform engineers, and experienced developers responsible for running modern infrastructure.

By the end of this book, you will have the knowledge and mindset required to operate OpenShift platforms with confidence, efficiency, and production-grade reliability.
