We performed a comparison between Amazon AWS 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."Amazon for DevOps is fantastic. Amazon has fast clouds, and the process and the Dev is very good."
"It is intuitive, easy to deploy, and rather quick to deploy and set up. There are a number of native services in the ecosystem. These services are built into the cloud and are mature enough to support you in many ways."
"It is enough for us in terms of features. We don't have too many transactions, and it is sufficient for our current needs."
"The technical support is good."
"The most valuable features are load balancers, databases, and S3 buckets."
"The most valuable features of Amazon AWS are ease of use, deployment, and short lead time. If you are using an on-premise solution, you need to wait for the hardware, and nowadays it is very difficult, the lead time becomes very long. We propose to our customers to use Amazon AWS because it is very easy, no need to wait for hardware delivery."
"It has helped reduce the cost by rationing the computing power and paying only on a per usage basis, instead of provisioning unneeded, idle, or unutilized computing power that is used only at 20% of its capacity or time."
"The solution offers easy provisioning and scaling on the fly."
"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 deployment mechanism has become more dynamic with the use of the product."
"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 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 solution offers the most robust Kubernetes orchestration available."
"Its subscription model or pricing model is too complex, which should be improved."
"The pricing is expensive"
"I would appreciate more direct support from AWS."
"The solution could improve by being more secure."
"Some of their well-listed services are not super configurable."
"There is a feature called Kinesis, which has to do with image processing. There are a few artificial intelligence tools that Amazon AWS should improve on."
"The solution is pretty mature."
"I would like to see CloudFormation made more in the programming way of thinking."
"Technical support could be a bit better."
"There is room for improvement in cluster-based queue monitoring and autoscaling."
"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 general purpose solution tries to cater to too many customers so it is heavy."
"The service mesh integrations could improve the solution."
"The installation and configuration procedure should be simplified."
"Making it even more cost-effective could be explored."
