The document discusses the challenges of managing containers at scale, including operational efficiency, service health, security and compliance, and financial management. It then outlines how Red Hat CloudForms can help address these challenges by continuously discovering infrastructure, providing global inventory views and topology maps, enabling automation through custom menus and policies, monitoring resource usage and configurations, enforcing compliance policies, and providing cost management through chargeback reporting. The document encourages learning more through CloudForms blogs, YouTube, and Red Hat Summit.

10. SERVICE HEALTH
Do I have enough spare capacity?
When will I run out?
How I can get notified of issues?
Are my resources sized correctly?
Are my configurations correct and not
drifting?
?

CloudForms monitors resource
consumption and shows trends.
CloudForms alerts on performance
thresholds or other events.

18. SECURITY & COMPLIANCE
Do my nodes and containers comply
with my enterprise policy?
Are my developers using untrusted
registries?
Are all my images patched properly?
Do I have containers running from
unpatched images?
18

19. SECURITY & COMPLIANCE
CloudForms finds and marks nodes
non-compliant with policy.
CloudForms allows reporting on
container provenance.
CloudForms scans Containers Images
using OpenSCAP.
CloudForms tracks genealogy between
images and containers.

23. FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
How much does my container
infrastructure cost me?
How do I see who is consuming most?
How can I pass through cost to my end
users?
?

24. FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
Define cost models for infrastructure
and understand your cost.
CloudForms shows top users for CPU,
memory, as well as cost.
Chargeback/showback to projects
based on container utilization.
