OpenShift Review
As a Red Hat Partner we use OpenShift to help our customers to include it in their projects as the main platform for running workloads. Most of the business problems that they solve are regarding agility for deployment and managing scalability for better Customer Experience, better performance and easy rollout. Another business problems that some custormers face that solve with openshift is the portability either from infrastructure or from environments.
- Compatibility with most of the infrastructure providers (public or private clouds) and the installations methods
- User Exprience in the console and the integration between components
- The management of operators
- The separation on Dev Experience and Admin Experience in the console
- The observability stack still looks like it's separated from the rest of the console. Need to be more integrated like providing a feature that will make "easy" todo customize some dashboards
- The migration between versions in clusters that include a lot of operators sometimes is really risky because of the versions compatilbility

- Negative on SMB, the "starter kit" is big for most of the SMB (at least in LATAM)
- Positive on the integration of components, could become the main PaaS really easy
