We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""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.""I would rate the scalability an eight out of ten.""The most valuable features of the solution are accessibility and scalability."

"The solution is integrated very well with a lot of other systems. Also, its GUI is very good.""Tanzu is easy to upgrade and scale, whether we're talking about horizontal or vertical scaling. It is as smooth as possible without any downtime. The platform maintenance, upgrading, and operations part is very smooth.""There are a lot of services available in VMware Tanzu Application Service, such as databases and application servers. You have everything you need in one application and you do not need to search outside of the solution.""The most valuable feature of the solution is the ability to check the flow of all the different variants within our applications."

Cons
"Azure Red Hat OpenShift's support should be improved.""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.""They need to improve the core licensing model.""The product is expensive."

More Azure Red Hat OpenShift Cons →

"The solution is currently focused on VMware infrastructure and I would like to see more options made available.""Tanzu could provide more granular control over whatever networking is being done on the containers. I would also like to see a slightly more detailed view of application-level tracing. I'm referring to the connections between different microservices. If they added a service-matching feature, that would be helpful for the customers to build or be more effective.""The implementation is not easy, it is very complex and can take a day or two to complete.""The solution's initial setup process was complex...The solution could benefit from improved customization and visibility for its users."
