Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (self-managed)

Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat OpenShift

We use it to help containerize and develop code using dev spaces. The use case is to help modernize our services.
  • Easy User Interface
  • Good Security
  • Versatile
  • Understanding VMs in it more
  • Pooled storage for VMs
  • More Rhel feature
  • Quicker deployment
  • Able to use to code anywhere
  • Pain to deploy and set up
It has impacted our agility to develop, deliver, and maintain applications by making it easier to manage and deploy containers. It also has helped us get off virtual machines to code and being able to use an IDE in a browser.
It is very snappy and does really good. It takes a lot to set up but once it is set up it works great.
It is a great compliment to the other services.

Using Red Hat OpenShift

100 - The business function they represent are developers and system administrators. They use it to help develop and deploy containers also. They are looking at possibly using it to store vms as well.
10 - The skills are needed is to know containers really well and how much resources are needed to keep the open shift cluster with enough resources. Also, having people to be able to take the big lift to get open shift set up and securely.
  • DevSpaces
  • Container management
  • Security
  • In house stack to code and develop all in one
  • Helping with container security
  • A playground for testing
  • Better vm support
  • Easier set up
It's a great product that serves a lot of our use cases. It was a pain to get installed because of permissions. Took more time and had to be done manually. This is why I gave it a 6. Once deployed it is so nice to have and people have been able to use it anyway they need it.
