OpenShift V3 vs. OpenShift V2 [closed]

Question

I'm searching for a main difference between OpenShift V3 and V2. Is OpenShift V2 working like this?: https://www.openshift.com/walkthrough/how-it-works And how are Docker and Kubernetes working in V3?

Can someone give me a clear explanation about the build-up of OpenShift V2 and V3

Answer 1

This is a rather broadly asked question, so I will (and can) answer only in a rather broad manner.

There are a lot of key concepts that have changed. These are the most important ones and you'll need some time to get into it, but they are a big improvement to OpenShift v2.:

• Cartridges vs. Docker Containers
• Gears vs. Kubernetes Pods
• Broker vs. Kubernetes Master
• Release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Host

When you'll study the links below you will understand, that (really exaggerated) OpenShift v3 has basically nothing to do with v2 besides the name, the logo and the PaaS focus. But it's still a great tool and IMO has set new standards in the PaaS-world. (No, I don't work for RedHat ;)

For starters; Docker & Kubernetes:
