Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I would rate the scalability an eight out of ten.""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.""It has a feature to automatically scale up or scale down. If my application is running in peak hours, it will automatically increase.""It supports AKS and other projects like Kubernetes or EKS.""In Kubernetes, when traffic goes out of a pod, it has to have its own IP address. Every service that's going out requires another IP. But with OpenShift, you don't have to deal with any of those IPs because they use NAT.""The most valuable features of the solution are accessibility and scalability."

"Google App Engine's most valuable feature is self-management. You do not have to manage the infrastructure underneath where all the functions are happening, such as load balancing deployment and version management, they are managed by the system itself.""Its ability to integrate with most devices helps users who have different or old devices.""The solution is serverless, so we don't have to operate it.""Seurity features - unauthorized individuals are unable to access certain applications.""The initial setup is okay. It's not too complex. Deployment took about one day.""The product's setup and deployment phases are easy.""The product's initial setup phase was straightforward, considering that there is good documentation explaining the implementation part of it.""The WhatApp feature is the most valuable."

Cons
"One of the things to notice is that this product can be expensive.""They need to improve the core licensing model.""Azure Red Hat OpenShift's support should be improved.""Automation could be improved.""There is room for improvement in terms of orchestration. While Azure orchestration offers valuable features, it's worth noting that it may not match the level of orchestration provided by Kubernetes itself.""The product is expensive."

More Azure Red Hat OpenShift Cons →

"Some features of runtime don't work well in App Engine.""The only concern is that there is a number of the offerings which are built on their own proprietary technologies. With some of the offerings in Google Cloud, it's difficult to have a path to migrate to other cloud providers.""The documentation and community are lacking for this product.""I would like a simpler deployment tool on laptops. It is a bit complicated at the moment. We know how to do it, but it could be easier to deploy it on laptops.""Data consumption of the device could be improved.""There needs to be more directions in terms of how to use the solution.""The support for the Indian region is not as good as compared to the support that is offered to the regions in Europe.""Difficult to assess how pricing is managed."

    Amazon Web Services, Rackspace OpenStack, Microsoft Windows Azure and Google are the major cloud hosting and storage service providers. Athough Amazon is top of them and is oldest in cloud market, Rackspace, Microsoft and Google are giving tough competition to each other and to Amazon also for alluring IT customers. This article give brief history of these cloud hosting service providers and compares the cloud services provided by them. -- Amazon Web Services -- It's hard to find someone who doesn't agree that Amazon Web Services is the market leader in IaaS cloud computing. The company has one of the widest breadths of cloud services - including compute, storage, networking, databases, load balancers, applications and application development platforms all delivered as a cloud service. Amazon has dropped its prices 21 times since it debuted its cloud six years ago and fairly consistently fills whatever gaps it has in the size of virtual machine instances on its platform - the company recently rolled out new high-memory instances, for example. There are some cautions for Amazon though. Namely, its cloud has experienced three major outages in two years. One analyst, Jillian Mirandi of Technology Business Researcher, has suggested that continued outages could eventually start hindering businesses' willingness to invest in Amazon infrastructure.
