Faster time to market and vendor flexibility with room for smoother application deployments

  • September 13, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We help some operators implement the container platform. Some of the operators use other software, such as VMware or Whitestack. Our focus is on pushing Red Hat products. We also use OpenShift for containerized applications in IT and networks, including applications like My Mobistar, My Carlos, and Smart Wi-Fi.

How has it helped my organization?

The solution primarily benefits our organization by reducing time to market, avoiding vendor lock-in, and facilitating multi-cloud environments. These capabilities allow us to leverage various cloud providers and integrate seamlessly between on-premise and public cloud solutions.

What is most valuable?

Valuable features include time to market, avoiding vendor lock-in, and the ease of working in a multi-cloud environment. This flexibility allows the use of multiple cloud platforms such as AWS, Microsoft, Google, and IBM.

What needs improvement?

The speed of deploying new applications can be improved. Additionally, enhancing the process for changing to DevOps models from Waterfall workflows would be beneficial. There are issues with capacity planning and lifecycle management that need to be addressed, particularly in avoiding problems due to congestion or misunderstanding between software factories and Red Hat experts.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using OpenShift for more than three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

In general, customers are very happy with the stability of the solution. In Argentina, the main three operators are using OpenShift and find the stability to be quite good.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

All customers are very happy with the scalability of OpenShift. The main three operators in Argentina use OpenShift, and they find the stability quite good, contributing to its scalability.

How are customer service and support?

Customer service is effective, particularly with the TAM (Technical Account Manager) service, which includes highly experienced personnel. Operators are very happy with the TAM services.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is moderately complex. While it is not extremely difficult, operators typically require assistance from Red Hat experts.

What about the implementation team?

Operators usually need the help of Red Hat experts during the setup phase.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I don't have detailed knowledge about the setup costs or ROI. However, I know it is cheaper than some other platforms.

What other advice do I have?

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Hybrid Cloud

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Robust platform with valuable automation capabilities

  • May 31, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use the product primarily for CI/CD activities across different platforms using Argo CD and Tekton to deliver applications.

What needs improvement?

The platform's documentation could be more comprehensive to cover the full spectrum of user needs. Sometimes, achieving specific goals is challenging due to a lack of detailed guidance.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using Red Hat OpenShift for about six months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the product stability as an eight.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The platform is scalable. 

How was the initial setup?

I'm not directly involved in the deployment process, but from what I've observed, it seems manageable.

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend Red Hat OpenShift, especially for its automation capabilities. It's a solid platform, backed by reputable companies like IBM, ensuring stability and security.

I rate it an eight.

What do you like best about the product?
This containerization playform provides securities and compliances with a support model of lift and shift. Making the applications scalability on a advance level over more than multiple pods horizontally and vertically scaling.
What do you dislike about the product?

Used for runtime or application migration, transitioning from classic application servers

  • May 22, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use Red Hat OpenShift for runtime or application migration, transitioning from classic application servers and configuration restore machines.

What is most valuable?

The solution offers ease with which we can define how to run applications and configure them. It's much more convenient than creating a virtual machine and configuring application servers, making the process faster and simpler.

What needs improvement?

There are some features regarding English and communication. This refers to external communication points to and from the OpenShift cluster. However, there are limitations due to the cluster's setup.

There are configuration problem, but we managed to find a workaround. Now, we're waiting for Red Hat to address it as a patch. In the meantime, we're using the workaround and are somewhat satisfied. Dealing with just one issue was unexpected, but it did take longer.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is highly scalable. This is a key feature that led us to transition from classic legacy applications to OpenShift because adding more nodes and scaling applications is straightforward. However, it's important to note that applications need to be designed to support this scalability. 

From an external perspective, it's accessible via the OpenShift Internet. Some services require authentication for users, while others are available to non-authenticated users. t can handle anywhere from ten thousand to one hundred thousand users. I rate it a ten out of ten.

How are customer service and support?

We don't have a huge number of ticket.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is complex as you need to know the steps. You can design the configuration of the cluster because it comprises various nodes, including infrastructure nodes, control points, and workers. You need to understand how to set up these basic components of the cluster and address persistent volume challenges to ensure they function properly.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The product comes with annual subscription. I rate the solution’s pricing an eight out of ten.

What other advice do I have?

The automation capabilities are straightforward. The tools are designed from the ground up to facilitate automation processes, making it increasingly comfortable to create CI/CD automation processes

One piece of advice is not to be stuck in old ways of thinking because you may need to transition to different types of work. Once you make this shift, you'll find that it's easier than it was in the past.

Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises
