What comes after the Developer Sandbox?

The Developer Sandbox is an ideal place to start developing your project. Once you are ready to take your application to production or you begin to hit resource limitations with the Developer Sandbox, consider moving your project to Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA)

Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS is a fully managed turnkey application platform that provides Red Hat OpenShift running natively on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
