AWS & Redhat Partnership

Organizations are looking for a solution that can help them to implement their Hybrid & Multi-cloud strategy. AWS & Redhat Openshift partnership can help bridge that gap.
AWS being a leader in the public cloud and Openshift being the first choice for Kubernetes on private cloud, it’s the right partnership to provide the seamless solution for the end customer.

Target customers:

Customer running opensource Kubernetes
Customer running Openshift on-prem
Customer running VMWare Center
Customer running Physical server

Current Challenges:

Private cloud container/pod size is limited by openshift node
Provisioning of additional nodes takes time (VM/Physical Server) on private cloud
Some application that needs access to GPU for AI/ML, need to set up infra for GPU on-prem which is costly
Some application needs components like S3, need to deploy separate solution for object storage and need a team to manage it
Need burst capacity for promotion, year-end sale, Chinese new year, etc
Need capacity forecasting
CAPEX
Most customers have two sites need 3rd site in the public cloud which can act as an extension

Features Benefits:

Support for container with higher configuration (e.g. required for analytics platform like Apache Spark, Presto etc.)
Multicloud Support
Hybrid Cloud: To connect private cloud and public cloud
Inbuilt support for AWS services like S3 e.g. appearing S3 as a file system to the container for any processing without separate API call from the application side. Similar to Apache Mesos & Marathon integration with S3 bucket
Single control panel to manage workloads from private & public cloud openshift
Centralized Network Policy management
Centralized Security policy management
Centralized Monitoring
Centralized network/traffic visibility
Cloud Burst: Public Cloud as an extension of private cloud and seamless
Autoscaling option across cloud & option to configure the rules
Centralized billing
Multi-Tenancy, which spans across private & public cloud
Integration with enterprise tools & process
Integration with Active Directory/IAM tools
