Overview
The following topics provide high-level, architectural information on core concepts and objects you will encounter when using OpenShift Enterprise. Many of these objects come from Kubernetes, which is extended by OpenShift Enterprise to provide a more feature-rich development lifecycle platform.
-
Containers and images are the building blocks for deploying your applications.
-
Pods and services allow for containers to communicate with each other and proxy connections.
-
Projects and users provide the space and means for communities to organize and manage their content together.
-
Builds and image streams allow you to build working images and react to new images.
-
Deployments add expanded support for the software development and deployment lifecycle.
-
routes announce your service to the world.
-
Templates allow for many objects to be created at once based on customized parameters.
