Why this course

Built by a PAM team that ships OpenBao in production — not a generic vendor walkthrough.

⌘

Command-first

Every concept is paired with the exact bao commands you run, so you finish able to operate a cluster, not just describe one.

⇄

Migration-ready

A full module on moving existing HashiCorp Vault workloads to OpenBao with zero application code changes.

◎

AI-native

Learn how OpenBao becomes the data plane under an agentic PAM platform like Guardian-AI.

🔬 Lab Outcomes — What You'll Actually Build

A working Vault instance with the CLI explored hands-on, not just read about

A genuine 3-node Raft HA cluster you configured and operated yourself
