    Use Cases & Benefits

    • Hosts OpenShift control planes at scale using a middleware approach for hyperscale cluster management.
    • Reduces cost and provisioning time while enabling cross-cloud portability with clear separation between management and workload clusters.
    • Use for deploying cost-efficient, scalable OpenShift clusters with hosted control planes in multi-cloud environments.
    • Use for managing OpenShift clusters that require strict separation of control plane and workload responsibilities.
    • Use for integrating standard OpenShift and Kubernetes toolchains with hyperscale hosted control plane architectures.

    From the README

    HyperShift is a middleware for hosting OpenShift control planes at scale that solves for cost and time to provision, as well as portability cross cloud with strong separation of concerns between management and workloads. Clusters are fully compliant OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) clusters and are compatible with standard OCP and Kubernetes toolchains.
