IBM z/OS Container Extensions zCX
Course Description
Overview
• z/OS Container Extensions (zCX), a new entitled capability of z/OS 2.4, ushers in a new era ofhybrid computing supporting running Linux applications directly on z/OS.
• IBM® z/OS® Container Extensions (IBM zCX) makes it possible to run Linux on IBM Z®applications that are packaged as Docker container images on z/OS. Application developers candevelop and data centers can operate popular open source packages, Linux applications, IBMsoftware, and third-party software together with z/OS applications and data.
Objectives
- Describe the components of z/OS Container Extensions (zCX)- Plan the resources required to setup zCX- Configure and implement a zCX instance with z/OSMF workflow- Start and connect to your zCX instance- Access your zCX CLI Container and issue Docker commands- Provision and deploy application container using zCX docker CLI- Create Docker volumes for data persistence- Monitor and manage your zCX instance and your containers- Deploy some use-case applications in zCX containers- Understand the Security considerations for zCX and containers- Setup zCX user management and authentication- Implement clustering and orchestration of zCX instances and container- Understand how to to Dockerize your Applications for z/OS Container Extensions- Implement a zCX private secure registry to deploy your own containers- Position zCX in the world of Hybrid Cloud- Select workloads for zCX- Determine which application is a good fit for zCX- Describe some zCX use-cases
