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."The most valuable features of the solution are accessibility and scalability."
"I would rate the scalability an eight out of ten."
"It supports AKS and other projects like Kubernetes or EKS."
"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."
"It has a feature to automatically scale up or scale down. If my application is running in peak hours, it will automatically increase."
"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."
"The solution is easy to scale."
"It's cloud agnostic and the containerization and security features are outstanding."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is the great customer service and the ability for our team to get assistance when we need it."
"The initial setup is simple, and OpenShift is open-source, so it's easy to install on any cloud platform."
"Scaling and uptime of the applications are positives."
"There is a quick deployment of the application, and we can scale out efficiently."
"Provides support throughout the whole platform."
"Excellent GUI support, so one does not need to use the command line client for almost any tasks. Great support for building images directly from Git repositories with hooks."
"The product is expensive."
"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."
"One of the things to notice is that this product can be expensive."
"Azure Red Hat OpenShift's support should be improved."
"They need to improve the core licensing model."
"I want easier node management and more user-friendly scripts for installing master and worker nodes."
"The operators need a lot of improvement, with better integrations."
"I think that OpenShift has too many commands for running services from the CLI, and the configuration files are a little complicated."
"OpenShift could improve by providing the ability to integrate with public cloud platforms. This way we can easily use the services that these platforms offer. For instance, Amazon AWS. However, all the three major hyper-scalers solutions offer excellent DevOps and CI/CD tooling. If there was an easy way to integrate with them it would be beneficial. We need a way to easily integrate with the monitoring and dashboard services that they provide."
"Autoscaling is a very unique feature, but it could be useful to have more options based on traffic statistics, for example, via Prometheus. So, there should be more ready solutions to autoscale based on specific applications."
"Room for improvement is around the offerings that come as a bundle with the container platform. The packaging of the platform should be done such that customers do not have to purchase additional licenses."
"It could use auto-scaling based on criteria such as transaction volume, queue backlog, etc. Currently, it is limited to CPU and memory."
"Its virtual upgrades are time-consuming."
