Integrated pipelines have accelerated continuous deployment and improved incident response
The powerful thing about Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is for deploying how to install our application, how to deploy it, and it is easy to work with this platform to do DevOps or CI/CD. It is easy to do CI/CD with this platform and to add functionality in our application. We can add functionality in our application easily with this platform. We can go quickly from dev testing, integrating, and deploying quickly with this platform. The integrated CI/CD pipelines of Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform have a time-saving impact on our development process. When we use the CI/CD functionality, the main saving is really important compared to combining many other tools to have the same result. In Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, you have everything integrated, but in other platforms, you have to set up many tools to have the same output. In Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, it is ready to set up, or almost set up; you only have to configure it. Time-saving is one of the important things.

Automated updates have streamlined deployments and now support consistent multi‑cloud replication
Replicated offers features that help reduce the implementation time, which is why we are considering using it. I used it for testing the environment with our use case. We were running in a cloud and used the Kubernetes options. We replicated it to host our web page and then removed it to the Kubernetes cluster again, which was working fine. I did not have any problems during that process. The automated update is a good feature because you do not lose a lot of time during the entire process, and there is no stop phase or anything that could fail. When initially installing the product and then applying patches, we do not have any problems. We tried to integrate Replicated with DevOps tools. We tested integrating with Azure DevOps and GitHub, and we did not have any problems at that time. We did not have GitLab or any other tool available.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"For us, the fully automated upgrades are valuable. We have to maintain the clusters in production. For us, it is very important that it does not take too much time to manage all the clusters and do life cycle management and upgrades."
"Openshift is a very developer-friendly product, and the self-service allows us to deliver applications fast to production."
"I find the security features and use of operators in OpenShift Container Platform highly valuable."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and logging functionalities."
"Dashboards... give us all the details we need to see about the microservices."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its scalability on demand, which allows for potentially lower costs, and Built-in resiliency."
"It has been a good solution to deploy all containerized applications."
"The powerful thing about Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is for deploying how to install our application, how to deploy it, and it is easy to work with this platform to do DevOps or CI/CD."
"Replicated is a good tool that enables all software vendors that want to package over the web."
 

Cons

"Setting up OpenShift locally can be challenging, particularly because it requires RHL Linux and has specific restrictions."
"Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform can be improved by adding more features such as viewing things in dashboard mode, which would be helpful."
"The stability needs improvement."
"It is difficult to deploy the OpenShift cluster in a bare-metal environment."
"One challenge is that sometimes it may be difficult to find the answers to your questions if you are not a Red Hat customer."
"OpenShift Container Platform is an expensive solution, and its pricing could be improved."
"Setting up OpenShift isn't easy. I rate it three out of ten for ease of setup. We're deploying it in three phases. They're in the second phase now. The total deployment time will be five months. We expect to complete the deployment this March. There are 13 people on three teams working on this deployment."
"The price needs to be improved in OpenShift Container Platform. When I choose this, the product is the first factor that we have to make a long analysis to compare the real cost for the other services. However, price is high."
"The licensing cost could be improved, as some of the entitlements do not fit with the copies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I'm an architect, so I have no involvement in the pricing and licensing of the platform."
"OpenShift with Red Hat support is pretty costly. We have done a comparison between AWS EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Services) which provides fully managed services from AWS. It's built on open-source-based Kubernetes clusters and it is much cheaper compared to Red Hat, but it is a little expensive compared to ECS provided by AWS."
"OpenShift pricing varies by region. For example, a simple cluster with three nodes in DAL-10 might cost around $560 to $580 per month, subject to specific configurations like memory and CPU cores."
"The pricing is a bit more expensive than expected."
"We paid for Cloud Pak for integration. It all depends on how many VMs or how many CPUs you are using. They do the licensing based on that."
"The price is slightly on the higher side. It is something that can be worked on because most of the businesses now have margins."
"The license to use the OpenShift Container Platform is free. If you are capable with Java you can modify it."
"OpenShift Container Platform is highly-priced."
