What’s new in the Red Had OpenShift 4.4 Console?

The future of IT belongs to containers and Kubernetes, and Red Hat believes its latest version of OpenShift will take you there.

Red Hat’s OpenShift 4.4, the latest update to the leading enterprise Kubernetes platform available across hybrid and multi-cloud footprints, includes features that IT operations teams and application developers can both appreciate.

For the Administrator, Red Hat have enhanced the discoverability of OpenShift features, the helpfulness of accurate alerting, vulnerabilities, and made adding new functionality to your OpenShift cluster easier than ever.

OpenShift 4.4 also provides a developer-centric view of platform metrics and monitoring, with functionality that’s focused on delivering workflows that align with how developers work every day.

So what’s new in the 4.4 Console?

-         Enhanced discoverability with a brand new super-charged search page experience with multi-resource search.

-         It’s now even easier for users to get the information they need most with the revamped list views to provide the most relevant resource-specific data.

-         Enhanced Observability with metric-based dashboards built directly into the console rather than relying on external for insights and troubleshooting.

-         And the increased observability doesn’t stop there. Red Hat have also added enhancements to notifications and alert receivers to improve the alerting experience.

-         Easier than ever functionality for your cluster because operator developers can now specify exactly what namespace their operator should be installed to.

-         And finally Red Hat Openshift 4.4 takes security a step further by enhancing the Container Security Operator's functionality. Now, a dedicated Image Manifest Vulnerabilities list has been added to the Administrator section, where you can quickly view and diagnose vulnerabilities.

So, as you can see, Red Hat continues to push the Kubernetes platform to new heights to enable the future of container deployment, supporting the needs of IT operations and developers alike.

And don’t forget the new OpenShift functionalities and features are available across hybrid and multi-cloud footprints, including:

-         Every major public cloud provider in AWS, Google Cloud Platform, IBM Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and many specialized cloud providers

-         Managed solutions through OpenShift Dedicated, Azure Red Hat OpenShift, and IBM Red Hat OpenShift Kubernetes Service, enabling organizations to gain the benefits of enterprise Kubernetes without the burden of infrastructure management.

-         Support for multiple computing architectures, including x86, IBM Power, and mainframes.
