Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud

We use Red Hat OpenShift as the primary platform for our applications. The platform hosts around 3000 applications for our company, spread across millions of pods. Given that it's the primary platform for hosting our applications for developers as well as actual business users, the revenue source is both, direct and otherwise
  • 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
  • OpenShift has handled around 3000 applications within our network, amounting to a revenue of more than $1T
  • The average uptime across applications is more than 99.8%, which has led to minimal disruption in business critical functioning
  • It has also led to minimal security concerns, which has further solidified trust of the organization
