      Customer use case 

      As a customer i want to deploy openshift on bare metal so that 

      • i dont want to pay vmware
      • i want to remove extra layer that can cause performance problem 

      I want to run as many pods as i can on the physical node so that i can save capex+opex in buying and managing new hardware 

       

      Currently as if Dec 2021 openshift can only support max of 500 pods 

       

      Action plan

      Run a test . figure out where the bottleneck
