Step into the world of modern cloud-native engineering with a platform that has redefined how applications are built, deployed, and operated.
OPENSHIFT: THE MODERN APPLICATION PLATFORM is a practical, deeply technical guide designed to take you beyond surface-level understanding and into real-world application engineering on OpenShift. Whether you are a developer, DevOps engineer, or platform architect, this book equips you with the knowledge and confidence to design, deploy, and manage scalable, production-ready systems.
Rather than overwhelming you with theory alone, this book walks you through the complete lifecycle of application delivery—from containerization and deployment to networking, storage, security, and automation. Each concept is explained with clarity, depth, and real engineering context, helping you understand not just how things work, but why they are designed that way.
Inside this book, you will learn how to:
Understand the architecture of OpenShift and its foundation on Kubernetes
Build and manage containerized applications using modern workflows
Deploy applications using reliable and scalable strategies
Configure environments using ConfigMaps, Secrets, and runtime variables
Design networking and service exposure for real-world applications
Manage persistent storage and stateful workloads effectively
Secure applications using robust identity and policy controls
Implement monitoring, logging, and observability systems
Automate delivery using CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows
Scale applications efficiently while maintaining performance and reliability
Operate and maintain OpenShift clusters in production environments
Every chapter is crafted to reflect how experienced engineers approach real systems layered explanations, practical examples, and production-focused insights that prepare you for real challenges.
This is not just another introductory guide. It is a complete engineering roadmap for building and operating modern applications on OpenShift with confidence, clarity, and precision.
If you are ready to move from simply using platforms to truly mastering them, this book will become your definitive guide.
