Used for runtime or application migration, transitioning from classic application servers
What is our primary use case?
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.

Need to be able to get additional demo licensing to be able to present to customers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ease of use for customers, automation to help reduce time to deployment compared to non-kubernetes environments.
OpenShift
What do you like best about the product?
Consistent platform that provides the same promises of RHEL for Kubernetes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Bloated with too many features. We need the focus to be more on ease of deployment and automated builds through ACM. The agent based installer was a great move and we're incredibly happy with that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Migrating to containers and kubernetes.
Open shift seems to be a great product
What do you like best about the product?
The scalability is by far what makes this product one to really use

OpenShift Changed my life
What do you like best about the product?
Easier to manage than other Kubernetes distros
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing comes to mind. It serves my purposes
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can use it with that cool Container Accelerator from AuriStor
I really like ROSA, but think it can be better!
What do you like best about the product?
I like how it enables speedy development and testing of our web team's applications and enables the OPS team to better support CICD pipelines and development.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interfaces are overly complicated. Often I find it difficult to find things I need in the web interface and just default to the CLI. It could definitely use a face lift in my opinion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time to production. With openshift, our web development team is able to move from code to production way faster than traditional deployment models.
