Creating an area on RHCOS where customers can install their own SW.

I understand RHCOS is an immutable architecture so that customers cannot install their own SW on RHCOS. My request is creating an area on RHCOS where customers can install their own SW(like monitoring, logging, and job SW).

I clearly know we have to monitor, log, and execute jobs with container or OpenShift native way. However, my client is in the transitional era of Cloud Journey. For a while I need to run OpenShift with traditional SW.

    Closing since this is not a requirement for IBM Cloud Pak for Applications.

    This is a RFE for RHCOS. Our client want to inject their standard management module to RHCOS itself.

    Cloud Pak for Apps has an unrestricted license for OCP that allows the customer to install their own applications.
