Repost: OpenShift V3 Deep Dive - The Next Generation of PaaS w/ Docker

Mike Guerette

By Ben Parees There have been a lot of announcements lately around Red Hat’s OpenShift v3 plans, specifically around Docker and Kubernetes. OpenShift v3 is being built around the central idea of user applications running in Docker containers with scheduling/management support provided by the Kubernetes project, and augmented deployment, orchestration, and routing functionality built on top.

Repost: DevOps and OpenShift - A Perfect Match | Openshift Blog

Mike Guerette

If you ask three people what they think DevOps is, you’ll get three answers: “a way of running an IT department”, “a culture”, “something to do with Phoenix”. Ask a fourth person and you might hear “You can use OpenShift for that”. To see what DevOps has to do with the world’s favourite PaaS, I went along to the “OpenShift By Red Hat: The PaaS for DevOps” technical deep dive in Brisbane that was given as part of a road...

There were plans to put the application on a larger gear (it was hosted on a small gear) and to make it scalable (it wasn't)...

Dude, where's my PaaS memory? Tuning Java's footprint in OpenShift (Part 1)

Andrew Dinn

Is Java really greedy for memory? Java is often blamed for being an over-hungry consumer of physical memory. Indeed, until recently our OpenShift team were tempted to draw this same conclusion. OpenShift is Red Hat's open source Platform as a Service (PaaS) product. You can access it via public Cloud infrastructure managed by Red Hat (OpenShift Online) or even deploy it to your own data centre/private cloud (OpenShift Enterprise). OpenShift Online provides simple and manageable scalability to anyone developing and...
