OpenShift Container Platform and OpenShift Dedicated differences

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is a self-managed hybrid cloud platform you can deploy on-premises, on bare metal, or on public cloud infrastructure. OpenShift Dedicated is a fully managed service on AWS or Google Cloud Platform (GCP), where Red Hat handles cluster operations for you.

Regardless of your deployment model, you can use OpenShift Cluster Manager to create and manage both your OpenShift Container Platform and OpenShift Dedicated clusters from a single dashboard.
