OpenShift#

Just in case CF gets too expensive, how feasible would the OpenShift platform be as second choice?

Requirements:

• runnable jars
• ease of use for developers (with no infrastructure hassle)
• service registry (run your own eureka or so ?)
• pricing

Pricing#

Looking at https://www.openshift.com/pricing/index.html it says that running a "Medium Production gear" of 1GB costs $0.05 / hour. For a year this is 24x365x0.05 = $ 438,- per year

Runnable jar.#

Searched around a bit, came to http://www.tearsofaunicorn.com/articles/2013/11/24/deploying-dropwizard-to-openshift.html.... TBC
