Just don't. Opeshift has terrible performance, containers will stop to work at random times. It's just bad experince.


Did you use it during the free trial? I've found it give you just enough control. It's leagues ahead of what I saw from heroku as far as java goes.

They were great when I asked for more resources and the like as well during the trial. I've found a VPS better for my own purposes, but I'm kind of an outlier as far as the kinds of things I develop. Most people don't need that fine grained of control.

Openshift itself is a great model. That doesn't even count HN's love child Docker throwing their lot in with these guys.

I wouldn't mind evaluating their enterprise offering if it becomes relevant. I'm sure the paid product is much better than what was in the free developer preview a long time ago.

At least Red Hat is sticking by it, I haven't seen much in the way of cloud foundry in the while (keep in mind I haven't looked in to it in a while, so feel free to correct me here.)

I've also tried cloudbees and the like. I liked the fact that red hat is good on multiple fronts. It seems like they're nailing it overall.

That being said: heroku is usually the standard. I'm not really too much of a ruby person myself, I'm sure it's amazing for that though.


You're on HN, so I'm going to have to ask you to back up your claims.


When did you use it and what issues did you experience?
