EX432: Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management is an enterprise-focused program designed for professionals responsible for large-scale Cluster Management across OpenShift and Kubernetes environments. Aligned with DO432 Training and the EX432 Certification, this program enables centralized governance, observability, GitOps-driven automation, and secure Kubernetes multi cluster management using RHACM
As organizations scale container adoption, Cluster Management evolves from a single-cluster operational task into a strategic platform engineering function. Enterprises today operate dozens or hundreds of Kubernetes and OpenShift clusters across hybrid and multicloud environments. Without a centralized control plane, this expansion leads to governance gaps, security risks, configuration drift, and operational inefficiencies.
This Training addresses these challenges by providing a unified platform to manage the full lifecycle of clusters, applications, and virtual machines. The Red Hat EX432 course, formally delivered as DO432 Training, equips professionals with the advanced skills required to design, implement, and operate RHACM in production-grade environments and focuses on real-world Cluster Management scenarios including multicluster lifecycle operations, access control, compliance enforcement, observability at scale, and GitOps-based application deployment.
It aligns strictly with Red Hat’s official objectives and prepares candidates for the performance-based EX432 Certification, which validates expertise in enterprise Kubernetes multi cluster management.
