Feature Overview

OpenShift now runs as a fully supported platform on IBM Z and IBM Power systems however there are still feature gaps when compared to OpenShift and other areas of opportunity unique to the P/Z platforms. This feature will track the ongoing epics that will be used to bring existing and new core OpenShift features to these systems.

Goals

Relevant existing core features with a valid business case should be made available (eng, QE, docs, SRE) on Power and Z
New features that are coming online which have a valid business case to run on Power or Z should be brought across
Any specific platform dependent features (such as unique storage) can be tracked here

Features do not have to appear on both platforms at the same time, there may be a delay between the same feature appearing on one platform vrs the other, or in some cases the feature will only make sense (business wise or technically wise) to bring to a single specific platform.
