The managed OpenShift offering combines built-in OpenShift capabilities including RHEL-based infrastructure, enterprise hardened Kubernetes, validated integrations, integrated container registry, developer workflow tools, and access to services through service brokers with operational cluster life-cycle support from IBM Cloud SRE based on managing 20k production upstream Kubernetes clusters. As a managed offering, IBM will deploy the compute, networks, and storage based on the customer’s requirements through the UI, CLI, API, or automation through IBM Cloud Schematics. Additionally, IBM provides the tooling for updates including OS patches, vulnerability remediation, and updates to any component in the stack with the customer determining when they should upgrade. Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud supports HA masters, multi-zone clusters, compute isolation choices including bare metal worker nodes, customer managed keys using IBM Key Protect or HyperProtect Crypto Services using FIPS 140-2 Level 4 encryption, and secure access to IBM Cloud services to enhance an application’s capabilities including Watson, IoT, and Analytics.

  • Multiclick provisioning of resources makes it super easy to manage pods and deployments. We don't have to maintain code for the same
  • In built security features and customizability ensures that organization wide standards are integrated well into the containers
  • Automated backups, scale ups and fail recovery makes sure of minimal down time
  • Multi cloud support and migration often requires support of cloud teams, and is not entirely automated
  • Often run into common issues like cache clearance of pods, which is an activity we have to do manually, often multiple times a day
  • The UI can be made more intuitive and user friendly

  • All the deployment artifacts can be reused with minor changes to run on Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud
  • Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud enables users to manage VMs outside cluster using KubeVirt feature
  • The DevOps pipeline, like ArgoCD, was quick and easy to showcase the capability in Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud
  • IBM Cloud should provide the capability of integrating with external image registry like Quay.io, which is not available.
  • There is no IBM software available as an operator in the operator hub. Let's say if I have to use IBM App Connect or API Connect, then I have to get CP4I, which comes with software that I don't need. Basically, we need to offer all the SAAS offering as Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud operators, which gives the developer the choice to explore the offering.
  • There is no offering to install graphQL database in Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud.
