Official Linux LPIC‑3 305 Course: Virtualization & Containerization (305‑300 exam preparation)
The official LPIC‑3 305: Virtualization and Containerization course prepares enterprise-level Linux professionals to administer virtualized infrastructures and container platforms in corporate environments. This LPIC‑3 specialization focuses on full virtualization, container virtualization, and VM deployment/provisioning, aligning with the objectives of the 305‑300 exam.
*LPI retired exam 304 (Virtualization & High Availability) and replaced it with 305 (Virtualization and Containerization), so this course puts you on the current LPIC‑3 certification path for virtualization/containers.
Training Objectives
Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:
- Administer Full Virtualization environments in Linux and manage the lifecycle of virtual machines.
- Implement and manage Container Virtualization (lifecycle, images, execution, and operation).
- Apply VM Deployment and Provisioning practices for repeatable and scalable deployments.
- Prepare for the LPIC‑3 305‑300 exam following the official objectives and weight of each domain.
