Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service

We are developing a blockchain application for a healthcare-related product. We are using the IBM blockchain platform with the Kubernetes cluster to deploy our network as well as to expose our node application
  • Security is the key feature which our client expects to maintain across the application.
  • Built-in IP address provision so that we do not need to get an external IP.
  • External service connection ease.
  • Built-in volume management to store our keys.
  • IP addresses are expensive as compared.
  • Logging is not up to the mark.
  • Not highly available in all countries, we need to use other region clusters.
  • Downtime on many occasions.
  • We got to deploy entire application on one platform.
  • Few cost outruns.
  • Few downtime and logging issues.
Yes, we have used the DevOps tools for continuous integration. It has helped us to use developers from different regions and deploy the code on the integration DevOps tool and also we could manage separate dev and production environments.
We have used the cloud foundry service for our node application and MongoDB service for DB use. Both have worked very efficiently on dev as well as production environments.

It is perfectly suited for a blockchain platform which is built locally as there are not many good choices available in the market.
