Can someone explain what's new here? Openshift has existed for a while, right? Edit: Thanks. Feels like better wording on the page would have helped. "Online IDE" or something. Or rolling screenshots that show what it does, like Cloud9 has. Or maybe I'm too old to grok all this new cloud terminology.

disclaimer: I work on openshift.io, and there will be much more coming out as summit goes on so I can't refer to more than in current news: From https://www.redhat.com/en/about/press-releases/red-hat-unvei...

Sure. I wasn't trying to minimize it by saying "online IDE". I was trying to say that the home page is pretty ambiguous. I needed help from HN'ers to tell what it even was. "OpenShift" already means something else to me. That list of features you just posted would be good to put on the home page.

What is this product about? I clicked "Learn more" and was greeted by a sweet, juicy corporate-speak (https://www.openshift.io/end-to-end.html):

    Digital transformation is about evolving into a technology
    business in order to compete in the digital economy.
    Businesses can’t transform without relying on the developer
    to implement the transformation strategy and deliver value.
Mmm... tasty!

OpenShift has existed for a while. There are basically two versions; the original version was like a Heroku competitor. Then about 2 or so years ago, they came out with a new version based on Docker and Kubernetes called OpenShift Origin (OpenShift 3). I bet this is some type of OpenShift 3 offering, but it would be nice to know how it differs from their current offerings.

Disclosure: I work on openshift.io

Openshift.io is the end-to-end development environment which is built over the OpenShift PaaS.

The upstream for openshift.io is primarily in the fabric8 project. fabric8 is found in the following organizations:

https://github.com/fabric8io https://github.com/fabric8-ui https://github.com/fabric8-analytics https://github.com/fabric8-quickstarts https://github.com/fabric8io-images

I have an OpenShift account and now I'm shown an "additional action needed" page on login. When i complete it and hit submit, it tells me that email already exists.

Not at all pleasant :(

Has anyone signed up for the preview? I keep getting "We're sorry, but something went wrong." right after logging in.

We're getting a fix out momentarily - it's a character encoding issue in our DB (default MySQL UTF8).

In the meantime, replacing characters in your name like "Ł" with "L" will fix the issue. You can update your name and account settings here: https://developers.redhat.com/auth/realms/rhd/account/

I think with some stake-holdering it can synergize the democratization of orchestrated micro-services cloud.
