Deploying Microservices with OpenShift
Learn how to deploy, manage, and scale microservices with OpenShift. Discover how OpenShift simplifies microservices architectures with Kubernetes orchestration and continuous integration capabilities.
At a Glance
In this guided project, you will deploy a containerized application with OpenShift, explore deployment resources, and expose the application to the Internet.
In this guided project you will use the OpenShift console to access an OpenShift cluster from the developer perspective. You will add an application directly from a git repository and see how OpenShift automatically detects Node.js and selects the Node.js builder image. You will explore your application in the Topology view, where you will see a clear picture of the application as an outer circle and the deployment as an inner circle. You will notice how the Topology view represents the build status for your application and depicts a link to the route that makes the application available on the Internet. You will be able to interact with these features to view the deployment resources. You will access the build logs that show how the git repository is downloaded, a Dockerfile is generated, and the built container image is pushed to the registry. Then you will use the route to launch your application.
This guided project will give you insights into hosting microservices on OpenShift and using OpenShift as an extension of Kubernetes.
