Consultant at MISSASERVICE
Integrated pipelines have accelerated continuous deployment and improved incident response
The powerful thing about Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is for deploying how to install our application, how to deploy it, and it is easy to work with this platform to do DevOps or CI/CD. It is easy to do CI/CD with this platform and to add functionality in our application. We can add functionality in our application easily with this platform. We can go quickly from dev testing, integrating, and deploying quickly with this platform. The integrated CI/CD pipelines of Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform have a time-saving impact on our development process. When we use the CI/CD functionality, the main saving is really important compared to combining many other tools to have the same result. In Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, you have everything integrated, but in other platforms, you have to set up many tools to have the same output. In Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, it is ready to set up, or almost set up; you only have to configure it. Time-saving is one of the important things.

Automated updates have streamlined deployments and now support consistent multi‑cloud replication
Replicated offers features that help reduce the implementation time, which is why we are considering using it. I used it for testing the environment with our use case. We were running in a cloud and used the Kubernetes options. We replicated it to host our web page and then removed it to the Kubernetes cluster again, which was working fine. I did not have any problems during that process. The automated update is a good feature because you do not lose a lot of time during the entire process, and there is no stop phase or anything that could fail. When initially installing the product and then applying patches, we do not have any problems. We tried to integrate Replicated with DevOps tools. We tested integrating with Azure DevOps and GitHub, and we did not have any problems at that time. We did not have GitLab or any other tool available.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Technical support from Red Hat is very good."
"The banking transactions, inquiries, and account opening have been the most valuable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its scalability on demand, which allows for potentially lower costs, and Built-in resiliency."
"The platform is easy to scale as it supports Windows worker node."
"The solution is stable. However, it depends on the integrations of the solution on how stable it will be, such as what tools you integrate with."
"Autoscaling is an excellent feature that makes it very simple to scale our applications as required."
"OpenShift's core-based licensing model provides significant benefits regarding enterprise support and scalability."
"The usability and the developer experience. The platform has a centralized consultant that is easy to use for our development, operations and security teams."
"Replicated is a good tool that enables all software vendors that want to package over the web."
 

Cons

"It has an option to install OpenShift without connecting it to the Internet. We tried this, but it was very hard. We couldn't manage to use that option. We wanted to use it offline for installations, updates, upgrades, etc., but we didn't find the offline installation and updates easy. This could be better."
"The product could benefit from additional operators and tools integrated with OpenShift."
"With the recent trend of cloud-native, fully managed serverless services, I don't see much documentation about how a customer should move from on-prem to the cloud, or what is the best way to do a lift-and-shift. Even if you are on AWS OCP, which is self-managed infra services, and you want to use the ROSA managed services, what is the best way to achieve that migration? I don't see documentation for these kinds of use cases from Red Hat."
"OpenShift has certain restrictions in terms of managing the cluster when it's running on a public cloud. For example, identity and access management integration with the IM of AWS is quite difficult. It requires some open-source tools to integrate. This is one area where I always see room for improvement."
"Regarding return on investment, my customers have not yet seen value in money while or since implementing the Container Platform."
"There should be a simplification of the overall cluster environment. It should require fewer resources. Just to run a simple Hello World app, it requires about seven servers, and that's just crazy. I understand that it is fully redundant, but it's prohibitively expensive to get something simple going."
"There is room for improvement with integration."
"At the outset, the initial setup was not easy. The learning curve is always there."
"The licensing cost could be improved, as some of the entitlements do not fit with the copies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is expensive."
"It largely depends on how much money they earn from the application being deployed; you don't normally deploy an app just for the purpose of having it. You must constantly look into your revenue and how much you spend every container, minute, or hour of how much it is working."
"The pricing is expensive for licensing."
"The license to use the OpenShift Container Platform is free. If you are capable with Java you can modify it."
"We currently have an annual license renewal."
"We have to pay for the license."
"Its price is a bit high because it's a premium product, but as long as the business is ready to pay for that, it's okay."
"If you buy the product for a year or three, you get a lot of discounts...I feel that the product is worth its cost, especially since setting it up can be done with just a few clicks."
