A stable solution that helps integrate legacy systems with digital products in a special manner
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution's support and its automation tool that ensures we are secure and appropriately configured are the most valuable features of Azure Red Hat OpenShift."
  • "Azure Red Hat OpenShift's support should be improved."

What is our primary use case?

I had been using Azure Red Hat OpenShift for corporate integrations, trying to build and develop a digital business.

How has it helped my organization?

We recently put in production a new solution based on the Oracle platform. As a platform, this solution needs to integrate with legacy systems that are not appropriately adapted to the cloud-native solutions, and this is the cupping layer.

Azure Red Hat OpenShift and its integration tools provide the tools we need to integrate legacy systems with digital products in a special manner.

What is most valuable?

The solution is supported by Red Hat and Microsoft together, and we have SLAs and SLOs to guarantee our resilience and operation. The solution's support and its automation tool that ensures we are secure and appropriately configured are the most valuable features of Azure Red Hat OpenShift.

What needs improvement?

Azure Red Hat OpenShift's support should be improved. Sometimes, we have to act together with the Microsoft and Red Hat teams in some troubleshooting situations.

I would like to see something specifically developed or customized for analytics solutions in order to support data pipelines. Sometimes we have to build some predictive machine learning models and deliver them to the production environment. I don't have any DevOps automation or data ops specifically for this kind of data-intensive application.

Top 5
Supports AKS but lacks simplified migration process
Pros and Cons
  • "It supports AKS and other projects like Kubernetes or EKS."
  • "They need to improve the core licensing model."

What is our primary use case?

We use OpenShift on Azure as IaaS.

What is most valuable?

The cost of licensing per core is very expensive. I am in the process of migrating to AKS to reduce costs.

What needs improvement?

They need to improve the core licensing model.

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

It's expensive compared to a similar product, and we've only used some of its features on Kubernetes. Therefore, we are evaluating whether we will consider the possibility of replacing OpenShift, but nothing is certain yet.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated Rancher and AKS, and in the comparison, AKS proved to be more suitable for the company's needs.

What other advice do I have?

Based on my experience, I would rate it a seven out of ten. It is a good product.
