    Well suited for - Large-scale Edge deployments of OpenShift instances. Policy-based consistency for all workloads is Less appropriate for - Small-scale deployments. Stand-alone deployments of K8s clusters. Deployments in the same data center.

    If you're looking for a cost-effective solution then this is a good choice, be sure to keep on top of your balance! The 100% uptime is also a nice addition, although not unique in a cloud hosting service.

    Cons
    Red Hat
    • Initial deployment of the ACM itself needs to be made easy.
    • Dependency on the Software versions of underlying open shift workloads during upgrades.
    • LCM of ACM itself.

    • The billing reports are quite hard to read, could be simplified
    • A control panel function would be useful
    • The re-billing process could be better, not so cut throat if you miss a payment!

    I have also used TNA by Google Cloud, but that is not mature enough as ACM. Right now, ACM is the best choice as a cluster manager for private cloud data centers.

    UpCloud
    We trialed UpCloud to see if it would be better than DigitalOcean but for our needs, it was not. On DigitalOcean once a droplet is created, almost no thought needs to go into maintenance, outages, or other reliability-based issues.

    Return on Investment
    Red Hat
    • Reduced the deployment duration of individual nodes by 50%.
    • Acts as a central manager for all the clusters.
    • Provides a lot of infrastructure options (storage, networking, etc) to build instances of your choice.

    • The low cost means you don't really need to worry about pricing
    • To us as a business it was not as useful as DigitalOcean
