Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat Virtualization (RHV) (formerly RHEV)
Due to its inclusion in RedHat, RHV is utilized as a one-stop solution for virtual environments. The installation expenses of such a system pose a significant challenge for businesses. We're utilizing RHV instead of VSphere since it's more cost-effective and easier to integrate with KVM.
Pros
- RHV issues/bugs can be reported via Bugzilla to RH support. The service is great and typically responds soon.
- Red Hat distribution integration is seamless as it is integrated into the kernel.
- OpenStack support enables more customized VM templates and network configuration control.
Cons
- If the aforementioned can't be done, additional open-source tool compatibility or support.
- Improved compatibility with KVM.
- Testing on oVirt before acquiring RedHat service contracts has a positive influence.
