EX328: Is any documentation available during the exam?

[VladimirK]

Hello, thanks!

Yes it is available.

Hi @VladimirK, yes, for all Red Hat exams you will find the specific documentation available during the exam, either in html or pdf format, or both!

So remember, don't remember everything, learn to search and find the information you need. Use `man` as your personal swiss knife, and if it's not enough, go to the docs!

Is the istio documentation available? I'm concerned about it because there are a lot of details about istio configuration which aren't properly covered or not covered at all in the red hat service mesh official documentation.

If something is not covered in the official documentation, it is NOT very likely to be part of the actual cert exam!

Hi @Trevor, thanks for your answer, I hope you're right! But I'm not very confident about that because even the DO328 course covers some of those configurations (e.g. delays, canary releases, mirror launchs, timeouts, retries, quotas, rate limiting, just to mention a few) which are not described/detailed in the service mesh docs, but are actually mentioned/required in the exam objectives!

That's a very key item - EXAM OBJECTIVES!!!   As you know, that's your roadmap for preparing for any of the Red Hat cert exams.  If you've got all the bases covered that are mentioned in the exam objectives, you are in great (more than good) shape!!!

Hi @felipeerobnb 

did you take the exam at the end? I'm going to try next week and I'm relying a lot on Istio Documentation.

Thank you!
