Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform reviews

Vlado Velkovski - PeerSpot user
DevOps Architect at KIBS
Verified user of Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform
Feb 27, 2023
Product discussed: 4.10.3, 4.12.1
Provides automation that speeds up our process by 30% and helps us achieve zero downtime

Pros

"The stack in the software supply chain is one of the main reasons that we use OpenShift. When I came to this company, we bought hardware from IBM named Bluemix, and they used ICP, which stands for IBM Cloud Private."

Cons

"OpenShift has a pretty steep learning curve. It's not an easy tool to use. It's not only OpenShift but Kubernetes itself. The good thing is that Red Hat provides specific targeted training. There are five or six pieces of training where you can get certifications. The licenses for OpenShift are pretty expensive, so they could be cheaper because the competition isn't sleeping, and Red Hat must take that into account."

Provides significant time savings and robust security with excellent scalability

Pros

"The solution's security throughout the stack and the software supply chain is very reliable. When it was on-prem, it was by default secured by our company firewalls and security tools, and now it's in the cloud, which has its security and systems in place. This provides stability to our infrastructure. "

Cons

"Whenever we onboard or deploy services that talk to Oracle Database, they take a lot of time to become active and serve the incoming request, so it would be good to see some improvement here. This could be an OpenShift issue or an internal network problem within our organization."

Efficient deployment with resource optimization and multi-region stability

Pros

"It automates rolling out new features, packaging the code, conducting security scans, and deploying to OpenShift. "

Cons

"The interface has numerous UI bugs that need addressing. "

Provides good architecture that allowed us to configure DataPower and move from appliances to software-based solutions

Pros

"The architecture is the best. The solution is scalable if you are on a container-based solution."

Cons

"Getting the solution quickly and troubleshooting quickly are both areas where I think it needs some work. "
Daniel Drori - PeerSpot user
Development Team Lead & Project Manager at bank hapoalim

Everything works automatically, including scaling of pods, memory, and CPU, making our jobs easier

Pros

"Dashboards... give us all the details we need to see about the microservices."

Cons

"It can take 10 to 15 minutes to deploy a microservice. The CI/CD process takes a long time, and if it's because of OCP, that is something that can be changed."

Enhanced security and streamlined DevOps with advanced feature integration

Pros

"The most valuable features of OpenShift include its advanced security, integrated DNS system, built-in pipeline management with Tekton, enhanced networking routes, and dedicated platforms for DataOps and MLOps."

Cons

"Setting up OpenShift locally can be challenging, particularly because it requires RHL Linux and has specific restrictions. "

Allows us to easily run a lot of web applications and can be deployed with the help of an automated process

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it has a lot to offer to developers, so they don't need to care about the infrastructure or basic setup of the containers, so you can just jump in and develop."

Cons

"I believe that the documentation part is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."

Offers good user experience and security features

Pros

"It has been a good solution to deploy all containerized applications."

Cons

"One challenge is that sometimes it may be difficult to find the answers to your questions if you are not a Red Hat customer. "
