Openshift use for Commercial web sites
openshift, paas
Solution
You can use OpenShift Express for commercial web apps but be sure it will meet your requirements. Potential issues include:
- currently no outgoing email support
- currently applications do not scale to accommodate load
- 1GB disc space limit
- shared hosting
- limit 3 cartridges (DB, metrics, etc) per app
- no official support from Red Hat. Documentation is good and community forum support is very active.
OpenShift would meet many commercial site requirements. I think it's a great option. For more info read the FAQ.
Problem
Can we use OpenShift Express, which is free right now, for commercial web applications? And if not, then which PAAS services are there which are free, and have no vendor lock-in.
