Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use OpenShift as our platform to run the applications, we also provide and manage OpenShift clusters to other government agencies. Currently we are managing about 50 clusters all the way from technical testing to production, our largest cluster is at the moment running about 200 worker nodes. An example of an application running in OpenShift is using machine learning to find fraudulent requests in our system by analyzing data in an application.

Pros and Cons

OpenShift recovers really well when the underlying infrastructure recovers
OpenShift scales well
OpenShift is highly modifiable

Disconnected support is not always tested enough
