We performed a comparison between Amazon AWS and Azure Red Hat 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."We are mostly using EC2 compute and other resources. Most of our managed services are in AWS, which some of our clients prefer."
"AWS is constantly growing in features with every new version. It's a good cloud provider with excellent availability. The integration is good, and their security products are interesting. Amazon is always innovating and delivering new products to customers."
"It is very easy to set up. It is also easy to use. It has a lot of services and integrations. We've been able to integrate whatever we need until now."
"The most valuable feature is the backup ability. Most people are used to one type of backup solution that they're using, but most of these solutions have features that make it difficult to transfer to the cloud. I know that Veeam now gives people the opportunity to backup some on-premises solutions to the cloud. This feature is something that a lot of people are looking for."
"Amazon AWS has a better portfolio. They have an impressive technology and service portfolio."
"There are many valuable features, I find the EMR in the platform easy to use and to learn."
"We write a lot of Lambda functions for various services, as well as serverless functions."
"The compute and the elasticness of the compute is really great. Whenever there's a load, it automatically adds the servers and then reduces the servers based on the configuration. This is really wonderful, more cost-effective, and it's been really good for us."
"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 supports AKS and other projects like Kubernetes or EKS."
"I would rate the scalability an eight out of ten."
"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."
"The most valuable features of the solution are accessibility and scalability."
"The initial setup was very complex."
"The response time of technical support could be better."
"Amazon AWS would be improved if it were more stable and if customer support's responses were faster."
"I would appreciate more direct support from AWS."
"It would be ideal if they could provide automatic health reports. That way, I would be able to understand at a glance the state of my services at any given time."
"The initial setup is not easy at all."
"In some scenarios, Azure will support hybrid cloud better while AWS offers direct connection."
"I'm not an expert on the product, but if I had to suggest one improvement, I know a feature that would allow a person to backup his on-premise solution to the cloud directly with one click would be useful. This solution should be agnostic because sometimes a product that was backed up with Veeam is highly compatible with Commvault. I think it would be better if these backup features were agnostic. Viewing a build could also be improved. It's not easy to follow up on your consumption and see how much you're paying and how much you will be paying. Viewing the build could be more clear."
"Azure Red Hat OpenShift's support should be improved."
"They need to improve the core licensing model."
"Automation could be improved."
"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."
"One of the things to notice is that this product can be expensive."
