As Kubernetes continues to evolve, Hypershift emerges as a revolutionary solution for managing clusters with exceptional scalability and efficiency. This presentation will explore the future of Kubernetes cluster management, highlighting how Hypershift is reshaping the multi-cloud landscape and transforming strategies for enterprise-grade operations. With the rapid growth of Kubernetes across industries, managing clusters across multiple cloud providers while ensuring high performance, security, and cost efficiency remains a critical challenge. Hypershift addresses this by offering a centralized control plane for managing multiple Kubernetes clusters, providing a streamlined and scalable approach to cluster management.
A key advancement within this ecosystem is Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA) with Hosted Control Planes (HCP). By separating control plane pods from the rest of the cluster and consolidating them within a single OpenShift management cluster, ROSA HCP enhances resilience, scalability, and operational efficiency. This architecture significantly reduces provisioning time (from 40 minutes in ROSA Classic to around 10 minutes with HCP), lowers infrastructure costs, and simplifies scaling by only requiring adjustments to worker nodes. In contrast, ROSA Classic often involves complex and costly scaling of control plane capacity.
ROSA HCP provides a fully managed cloud-native environment, empowering organizations to offload complex infrastructure management tasks such as security, compliance, and monitoring, while benefiting from the scalability and flexibility of Red Hat OpenShift on AWS. This innovative approach directly addresses customer feedback regarding cost, offering a more budget-friendly solution without compromising service quality.
During this presentation, we will demonstrate the power of ROSA HCP, walking through the prerequisites for cluster creation, cluster access, deploying and scaling a simple application, and showcasing how control plane management is handled by Red Hat. Join us to learn how Hypershift and ROSA HCP can revolutionize your Kubernetes cluster management and accelerate your cloud-native journey.
