Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (self-managed)
Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat OpenShift
We use RH OpenShift to reduce our stores' overall hardware count and save on costs. The business problem is that it's becoming too costly to maintain our physical hardware at 280+ stores, and we know that we can move all of our core services onto OpenShift clusters and reduce the physical hardware count at our stores.
- Containerizing our services.
- High-availability and scalability.
- Being a cost-effective solution.
- More reliable upgrade path (in terms of security).
- Reduced spending on maintenance of servers at stores.
It has impacted my organization's ability to develop, deliver, and maintain applications in a neutral way (a good way, for the most part). It has been a learning curve for the developers, though, as it is a new technology, and they are developers first and foremost. But once their application is on the cluster and is working, they love how easy it is to update their applications.
- Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
