Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud for our product's day-to-day deployment. As we have to verify our product in the cloud, we have chosen IBM Cloud as one of our vendors. As we already use other cloud services from IBM, it makes sense to collaborate more efficiently for our deployment and testing.

Likelihood to Recommend

1. For deployment configs, it comes in very handy, as in our scenario, we need to deploy our product daily to verify the changes done by the application team. 2. For executions of the commands on pods, it does very well. 3. For scaling down and scaling up, we see, at certain times, some issues, but they are still manageable.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

OpenShift is very handy for us. With just a code repository (e.g., imported from Git), OpenShift is able to build the code into a container image, push that image to a registry, create a deployment that references the image, and open the application to the internet. My experience with OpenShift includes deploying an application using s2i (‘Source-to-image’).

Likelihood to Recommend

Scenarios where easy scalability and quick deployment are required are very well suited for OpenShift. Situations, where business continuity is critical (e.g., disaster recovery, redundancy, failover), are all attractive features of OpenShift. However, if budget is a consideration, OpenShift can cost more than other Kubernetes solutions. Also, some third-party tools may not always be compatible.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have used OpenShift cluster to install IBM Cloud Pak software. Cloud Pak was provisioned in the IBM Cloud. This was quick and painless.

Likelihood to Recommend

For setting up IBM Cloud Paks it makes sense to use OpenShift cluster operated by IBM.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use to deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications in a IBM cloud environment. Using Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud leverages our ability to start very quickly any containerized application developed with diferente languages, as here we use python, node, javascript and NEXT. We can take advantage of Built-in continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) tools, as well, security features, such as network policies and secret management. And its possible to use various databases and data stores.

Likelihood to Recommend

As a developer, Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud leverages our ability to start very quickly any containerized application developed with diferente languages, as here we use python, node, javascript and NEXT. It is crutial for a developer to have Support for multiple programming languages and frameworks, automated deployment and scaling of applications, built-in continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) tools as long security.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Red Hat OpenShift as the primary platform for our applications. The platform hosts around 3000 applications for our company, spread across millions of pods. Given that it's the primary platform for hosting our applications for developers as well as actual business users, the revenue source is both, direct and otherwise

Likelihood to Recommend

OpenShift on IC is most recommended for enterprise level applications where failure recovery and uptime is critical, with minimal manual intervention, to ensure least downtime. However, it can be a bit of an overkill for disjoint, standalone applications which can be spun up and down manually

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We created a POC last year using RedHat OpenShift in the IBM CLoud. IBM MQ, IBM App Connect Enterpriser and IBM WAS were all implemented in containers. This was to provide a uniform, consolidated, fully monitored, reliable platform for integrations, messaging and WAS applications. We demonstrated this POC in a company wide Hackathon for IT.

Likelihood to Recommend

RedHat OpenShift is not only suited for IBM Cloud but can run in ANY cloud. We installed in Azure Cloud, for example. It can also run on Linux servers or a Power 9 machine. It is built for multi-cloud or on-prem environments. IBM support provides such excellent guidance in the installation and configuration that no other product on the market can beat it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Utilizing OpenShift to bridge apps over AWS &

Azure & the integration enables existing us to explore the usage of

OpenShift & take advantage of the benefits offered by the platform.

The integration will be further enhanced in future

OpenShift releases to support more features of OpenShift and enable more

capabilities of the underlying infrastructure. So far, the added one more layer has made the apps swap between AWS/Azure possible, but not perfect yet.

Likelihood to Recommend

OpenShift as a Service- - Extend into the on-prem, edge, or public cloud environment - Multicloud Container

Development.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our organization uses Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud to easily deploy and manage applications within a Container-as-a-Service environment. Being capable of deploying Kubernetes clusters within a fully managed and reliable cloud platform eliminates the need for micromanagement of clusters and integration of 3rd-party monitoring tools. The number of pre-built container images within the OpenShift ecosystem makes [the] integration of standard applications into our clusters very straightforward as well.

Likelihood to Recommend

Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud is well-suited for situations where you want to deploy a large amount of applications within a Kubernetes cluster where you want to directly convert your source code in to containerized applications and add it to the cluster with minimum effort. It provides a great way to manage and monitor your cluster without having to go to a lot of effort.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

OpenShift is being used in a particular project to run a web application. This solution makes it easy to quickly deploy and run our application on the cloud and also to implement continuous development and deployment. It significantly reduced the time to market new versions as well as [mproving] the scalability of the application.

Likelihood to Recommend

OpenShift is well suited if you want to use docker and [Kubernetes] but you want to hide the complexity of these two technologies. It gives a developer much more freedom in terms of code deployment, builds process, and implementation. One of its strengths is scaling and you can easily configure it for each application.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

To stay competitive and continue to succeed, we realized we needed to update our IT architecture and therefore we decided to implement Red Hat OpenShift to migrate our entire infrastructure from dedicated in-house hardware to the cloud. This digital transformation removed the arduous administrative duties of maintaining and supporting our software and hardware that allowed the IT team to focus on the right work at the right time. Red Hat OpenShift is an agile integration platform that provides high availability and flexibility for rapid development and deployment.

Likelihood to Recommend

There are no systems in the market at the moment that boast the same characteristics as those of Red Hat OpenShift. This system is able to build an infrastructure that meets the massive scalability, long-term stability, and robust data security of extensive customer demands. I appreciate Red Hat Consulting for assisting with [the] deployment of the continuous integration environment.
