We performed a comparison between Azure Red Hat OpenShift and OpenShift 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."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."
"It has a feature to automatically scale up or scale down. If my application is running in peak hours, it will automatically increase."
"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."
"The most valuable features of the solution are accessibility and scalability."
"It supports AKS and other projects like Kubernetes or EKS."
"We are able to operate client’s platform without downtime during security patch management each month and provide a good SLA (as scalability for applications is processed during heavy client website load, automatically)."
"Overall, the solution's security throughout the stack and software supply chain is excellent."
"The virtualization of my APIs means I no longer have to pay VMware large amounts of money to only run in-house solutions."
"This solution is providing a platform with OOTB features that are difficult to build from scratch."
"I like OCP, and the management UI is better than the open-source ones."
"Its security is most valuable. It's by default secure, which is very important."
"We want to build a solution that can be deployable to any cloud because of client requirements and OpenShift allows us to do this."
"The solution is easy to scale."
"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."
"Automation could be improved."
"They need to improve the core licensing model."
"The product is expensive."
"One of the things to notice is that this product can be expensive."
"Azure Red Hat OpenShift's support should be improved."
"My team has found some bugs in OpenShift due to continuous integration, and this is an area for improvement in the platform. RedHat should fix the bugs. Another area for improvement in OpenShift is that upgrading clusters can be challenging, resulting in downtime. Application support also needs improvement in OpenShift because the platform doesn't support all applications in the cloud. I'd like upgraded storage in the next release of OpenShift, especially when I need to do a DR exercise. It would also be good if the platform allows mirroring with another cluster, or more portability in terms of moving applications to another cluster."
"An enhancement to consider for the future might involve incorporating a comprehensive solution for CI/CD tailored specifically for OpenShift."
"The whole area around the hybrid cloud could be improved. I would like to deploy a Red Hat OpenShift cluster on-premise and on the cloud, then have Red Hat do the entire hybrid cloud management."
"We experienced issues around desktop security, that stopped us implementing a new feature that had been developed."
"Credential not hidden, so people on the same group can view it."
"OpenShift could be improved if it were more accessible for smaller budgets."
"OpenShift can improve monitoring. Sometimes there are issues. Additionally, the solution could benefit from protective tools if something was to happen in our network."
"Not a ten because it's not a standard solution and the endpoint protection user has to prepare with documentation or have training from other people. It's not easy to start because it's not like other solutions."
