OpenShift Assisted Installer provides a SaaS-based managed service to deploy OpenShift clusters in various configurations, including bare metal servers and on on-premises nodes, from the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console. You do not require a dedicated bootstrap node before installing a cluster, and you do not need to preinstall Red Hat CoreOS on the nodes. Cluster deployment parameters are populated within the web UI and nodes are booted with a downloaded ISO image to complete the cluster deployment.
