We performed a comparison between Google App Engine and Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two PaaS Clouds solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is simple to use. It is much simpler than AWS. It is also very powerful."
"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 solution is serverless, so we don't have to operate it."
"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."
"The product's setup and deployment phases are easy."
"The WhatApp feature is the most valuable."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward, considering that there is good documentation explaining the implementation part of it."
"In general, customers appreciate its ability to run different workloads, manage applications through CI/CD pipelines like Jenkins, and leverage tools like Helm charts and Kako."
"The portability, moving from one platform to another, is easy."
"The solution offers the most robust Kubernetes orchestration available."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Our pipeline integrates various monitoring tools like Fortify for security checks. Once the pipeline processes the code, the finished product is deployed on Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud. We ensure application setup and recovery by utilizing two separate clusters on OpenShift."
"The most valuable feature of Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud is the UI console. We are able to receive the resources from the console directly."
"The deployment mechanism has become more dynamic with the use of the product."
"There needs to be more directions in terms of how to use the solution."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Data consumption of the device could be improved."
"The documentation and community are lacking for this product."
"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."
"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."
"Some features of runtime don't work well in App Engine."
"I am limited to sending a photo to five people. I want to be able to send a photo to many people, not just five."
"Technical support could be a bit better."
"The effectiveness is satisfactory, and there haven't been any additional fees due to meeting demands. However, there's room for improvement in pricing, performance, and stability. Regarding the UI, it could be more user-friendly and integrated with various platforms. Currently, the UI lacks user-friendliness, especially for developers unfamiliar with container technology. Expecting them to create YAML files for security purposes is unrealistic without proper guidance or experience. This aspect needs improvement."
"The installation and configuration procedure should be simplified."
"Making it even more cost-effective could be explored."
"The general purpose solution tries to cater to too many customers so it is heavy."
"There is room for improvement in cluster-based queue monitoring and autoscaling."
"The service mesh integrations could improve the solution."
