What is OpenShift?

RedHat, a global leader in open-source solutions, recently launched OpenShift, a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) for open-source developers ).

RedHat OpenShift enables developers to build, test, run, and manage their applications by providing more options on languages, frameworks, and clouds, thus, the PaaS market is redefined. Based on the comprehensive JBoss expertise of RedHat, OpenShift leads the PaaS market with innovative features (including CDI) and supports Java EE 6, this expands the capabilities of PaaS to richer and more demanding applications. Based on the open-source leadership of RedHat, OpenShift is designed to stop PaaS vendors from locking in, so that users can choose the cloud provider on which their applications are running. OpenShift will be provided as an online service.

"Cloud computing has begun to change the way open-source developers write and submit applications," said Judith Hurwitz, president and CEO of Hurwitz and Associates. Therefore, the platform and service market began to expand rapidly. RedHat OpenShift will help developers by providing a variety of development and deployment options ."

RedHat OpenShift provides more flexibility than any PaaS. It supports more development frameworks for Java, Python, PHP, Perl, and Ruby, including Spring, Seam, Weld, CDI, Rails, Rack, Symfony, Zend Framework, Twisted, Django, and Java E. It contains SQL and NoSQL data storage and a distributed file system.

Brian Steven S, Vice President and CTO of RedHat, said: "developers are switching to open source for innovation and choice. We use OpenShift to provide the first platform as a service to meet these needs. By providing the widest selection of platforms, languages, frameworks, and supported cloud providers, OpenShift gives developers the cloud environment they have always dreamed ."

The unique advantage of OpenShift is that it brings PaaS an industry-leading Red Hat and JBoss ecosystem, allowing developers to take advantage of the industry's most extensive middleware services. For example, OpenShift supports MongoDB and other services that have obtained the Red Hat Enterprise Linux certification. Because it supports a wide range of frameworks and languages, including Java, PHP, Python, and Ruby, RedHat OpenShift provides a more comprehensive set of functions for cloud computing developers.

In addition to designing services that meet the needs of new cloud developers, OpenShift is also the first public PaaS to provide Red Hat Enterprise-level JBoss services (such as transactions, business rules, transactions and messages, this provides a convenient way for enterprise developers to upgrade to the cloud. Based on the experience and ecosystem of RedHat in operating systems, virtualization, and JBoss Enterprise middleware, OpenShift can meet the needs of new cloud developers and enterprises.
