 === OpenShift
-https://www.openshift.com/[OpenShift] is the RedHat public (and enterprise) PaaS solution.
-Like Heroku, it works by running scripts triggered by git commits, so you can script
-the launching of a Spring Boot application in pretty much any way you like as long as the
-Java runtime is available (which is a standard feature you can ask for at OpenShift).
-To do this you can use the
-https://www.openshift.com/developers/do-it-yourself[DIY Cartridge] and hooks in your
-repository under `.openshift/action_hooks`:
-
-The basic model is to:
-
-1. Ensure Java and your build tool are installed remotely, e.g. using a `pre_build` hook
-   (Java and Maven are installed by default, Gradle is not)
-2. Use a `build` hook to build your jar (using Maven or Gradle), e.g.
-+
-[indent=0]
-----
-	#!/bin/bash
-	cd $OPENSHIFT_REPO_DIR
-	mvn package -s .openshift/settings.xml -DskipTests=true
-----
-+
-3. Add a `start` hook that calls `java -jar ...`
-+
-[indent=0]
-----
-	#!/bin/bash
-	cd $OPENSHIFT_REPO_DIR
-	nohup java -jar target/*.jar --server.port=${OPENSHIFT_DIY_PORT} --server.address=${OPENSHIFT_DIY_IP} &
-----
-+
-4. Use a `stop` hook (since the start is supposed to return cleanly), e.g.
-+
-[indent=0]
-----
-	#!/bin/bash
-	source $OPENSHIFT_CARTRIDGE_SDK_BASH
-	PID=$(ps -ef | grep java.*\.jar | grep -v grep | awk '{ print $2 }')
-	if [ -z "$PID" ]
-	then
-	    client_result "Application is already stopped"
-	else
-	    kill $PID
-	fi
-----

-5. Embed service bindings from environment variables provided by the platform
-in your `application.properties`, e.g.
-+
-[indent=0]
-----
-	spring.datasource.url: jdbc:mysql://${OPENSHIFT_MYSQL_DB_HOST}:${OPENSHIFT_MYSQL_DB_PORT}/${OPENSHIFT_APP_NAME}
-	spring.datasource.username: ${OPENSHIFT_MYSQL_DB_USERNAME}
-	spring.datasource.password: ${OPENSHIFT_MYSQL_DB_PASSWORD}

+Kubernetes container orchestration platform.  Just as in Kubernetes, OpenShift has many 
+options for installing Spring Boot based applications. 
 
-There's a blog on https://www.openshift.com/blogs/run-gradle-builds-on-openshift[running
-Gradle in OpenShift] on their website that will get you started with a gradle build to
-run the app.
+OpenShift has many resources describing how to deploy Spring Boot applications, which include :
