Logging in to the OpenShift web UI

As indicated before, the CloudFormation templates for Data Gate on Cloud deploys the product in a Red Hat® OpenShift (ROSA) cluster on AWS. To complete tasks, such as adding compute nodes to your cluster, you can use the Red Hat OpenShift web user interface (UI).
