Red Hat OpenShift Dedicated on Google Cloud

Building and managing a container and Kubernetes environment can be difficult, as many IT organizations lack the skills and staff needed to maintain their environment themselves. Many prefer to focus on developing and modernizing applications rather than creating, updating, and administering their container infrastructure.

Red Hat® OpenShift® Dedicated is a managed application platform hosted on Google Cloud. With OpenShift Dedicated, developers can focus on what matters most, stay competitive, and outpace rising customer expectations without worrying about managing the underlying infrastructure.

Red Hat OpenShift Dedicated is a fully managed application platform operated and supported by Red Hat and hosted on Google Cloud. With this comprehensive application platform, organizations can build, deploy, and scale applications in a Google Cloud environment. It reduces operational complexity and offers a streamlined developer experience, so organizations can confidently build and scale applications across cloud providers while Red Hat manages operations. 

Built on the trusted foundation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux®, OpenShift Dedicated offers a complete set of built-in tools and services for AI-powered and containerized applications, as well as deployments on virtual machines.

• Shortened learning curve: OpenShift Dedicated is a comprehensive application platform with integrated tools and services. Without having to learn new technologies or manage integrations, DevOps teams can build and deploy applications with less friction among teams.
• Simplified operations and reduced risk: OpenShift Dedicated simplifies the delivery, operations, and scaling of workloads with the help of Red Hat site reliability engineers (SREs). The Red Hat SRE team not only simplifies operations, it also helps reduce complexity and risk of downtime.
• Focus on innovation: OpenShift Dedicated lets DevOps teams focus on business priorities rather than ongoing platform and resource management. With less management and active maintenance work, organizations can train their teams on new platforms that integrate cloud tooling and services. 

Hybrid cloud flexibility: OpenShift Dedicated provides a consistent user-friendly experience with Red Hat OpenShift—for developers and operations teams migrating to the hybrid cloud and deploying across multiple environments. 

• Expertly managed infrastructure: Our proven and experienced global SRE team is available 24x7. It proactively manages the cluster lifecycle, infrastructure configuration, scaling, maintenance, security patching, and incident response, so teams can focus on customers.
• Security and compliance focus at scale: Strong processes and security controls align with industry standards to manage information security. OpenShift Dedicated is compliant with:
  • Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)

• Established container technology: OpenShift Dedicated has implemented the latest container technology and open source standards, including support for Kubernetes Operators.

• Automated workflows: A source-to-image (S2I) process places source code into ready-to-run container images, letting developers focus on building applications without having to learn Kubernetes concepts. This streamlined experience lets developers see only the information and configurations they care about.
• Operators: Developers can integrate trusted third-party services throughout the operator framework, allowing for rapid installation and frequent updates.
• Integrated developer tools: Developers can directly access command-line tools, a multidevice web console, and Eclipse-based integrated development environments (IDEs), which can lead to greater productivity.

• Streamlined billing and procurement: Receive a single bill for both the Red Hat OpenShift service and Google Cloud infrastructure consumption.
• Google committed use discount (CUD): Use Google Cloud committed spend, negotiated discounts, and entitlements to procure OpenShift Dedicated.
