Red Hat OpenShift or Red Hat OpenStack Platform: When to use What and Why?]]

The Virtualization Revolution

When virtualization came onto the scene, the ability to add new applications to existing hardware took the familiar concept of an operating system running an application and made it more manageable, more scalable and therefore more efficient. By deploying an IaaS platform, such as Red Hat OpenStack Platform, VMs can be run natively, to meet the hyperscale-demands of massive network providers, and can even provide Bare Metal as a Service for high performance applications - without the usual management complexity. Natively, Red Hat OpenStack Platform runs VMs and bare metal, but when paired with Red Hat OpenShift, it can also handle containers – more on that later. Consider this platform the most prevalent model, powering the majority of workloads.

What is Red Hat OpenShift?

Red Hat Openshift is an enterprise-ready, Kubernetes-based development platform used across multiple industries to orchestrate containers, develop cloud-native applications, and deliver them at scale. The platform is built by open source leaders with developers in mind, including a web console, command line tools, integrated development environment (IDE) support, pre-built templates, and continuous integration with third party tools. These features allow organizations to support a variety of use cases, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML), big data, edge computing for IoT, 5G deployments, and application modernization initiatives. Red Hat OpenShift addresses these workloads with consistent management and operations of the underlying Kubernetes infrastructure in hybrid or managed multi-cloud environments. 


What is Red Hat OpenStack Platform?

Red Hat OpenStack Platform is an open source Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform that uses pooled virtual resources to build and manage private and public clouds. It combines Red Hat Enterprise Linux® Server and Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) into a secure infrastructure. Just as OpenShift is based on Kubernetes, Red Hat OpenStack Platform is based on the OpenStack open source project.
