Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat OpenShift

Webapp development and virtualization, there are other operators we are exploring but they are not in production. One of the issues Red Hat OpenShift allows us to overcome is the flow from development to testing to production in web development. Often developers create on their local machine but when pushing to test or production the app fails to work due to configuration issues between the local machine and the production environment. Red Hat OpenShift eliminates that by providing a uniform environment for all three phases. It also provides enhanced security and stability.

Pros

  • Process management
  • Security
  • Visibility

Cons

  • Documentation needs to be improved
  • Troubleshooting can be complex and often difficult.
  • Upgrades are not always smooth.
  • Permissions are difficult and easy to understand.
  • Improved productivity
  • Improved efficiency
  • Greater security
  • Streamlined process
We have a dramatic impact on the process, it is more streamlined, allowing delivery to be more reliable and maintenance of applications is significantly faster.
Performance is great, there are mechanisms for automation during heavy or light usage times to increase or decrease resources based on load.
We have only used Red Hat OpenShift.
