Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat OpenShift

We use Red Hat OpenShift in Azure for our order management system at a large US-based retailer with significant e-commerce presence. It is used to coordinate order fulfillment between systems and we are currently planning to move more traditional PaaS-hosted applications in Red Hat OpenShift.

We have been pleased with our Red Hat OpenShift experience so far and look forward to migrating more applications through modernization efforts.

Pros

  • DevOps
  • Automated scaling
  • Security and controls for engineering teams

Cons

  • Bare metal / ARO feature offering equivalence
  • More opinionated cluster deployment strategies
  • GitOps focused strategies
  • Developer experience increased by enabling them to have more control
  • Better security controls versus other Kubernetes deployments
  • Faster deployments with downtime deployments
We have seen significant increases in our teams' ability to deploy applications. Red Hat OpenShift's platform gives great visibility into those running applications and has enabled them to have more control over the applications that they write. Red Hat OpenShift's overall approach to information and learning has been really great.
Red Hat OpenShift has been a net positive for our organization and we are looking forward to modernizing more applications into it.
I like how Red Hat OpenShift is more security-focused and opinionated.

Do you think Red Hat OpenShift delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Red Hat OpenShift's feature set?

Yes

Did Red Hat OpenShift live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Red Hat OpenShift go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Red Hat OpenShift again?

Yes

I think a lot of the time Red Hat OpenShift gets the short-end of the stick in the overarching Kubernetes community because it is licensed enterprise software. I would love to see more marketing and advertising with the open source community to help drive excitement around the technology and adoption. This would help drive more innovation from the open source community and inevitably more positive evolution cycles overtime.
