The enhanced OpenShift CLI (or oc) is not a replacement of the original OpenShift CLI. It is essentially a shell on top of the original oc. By using enhanced oc, you can manage very large amount of clusters both in a secure and efficient manner with better team collaboration.

- Security: Cluster access data including password are all encrypted and saved in a secret store to avoid sensitive information disclosure.
- Efficiency: Login to a cluster can be done by using a human-memorable alias without specifying the full cluster access information.
- Team collaborion: The same set of cluster access information can be shared with and reused by your team members in a secure way.
The enhanced oc supports all the original oc commands and their options, plus some additional cool features:
- Login a cluster with full context information provided only once, then use an alias to re-login at any time.
- Organize many clusters hierarchically, switch among them efficiently by partial input, fuzzy search, nice shell prompt.
- Share cluster context information with your team members for large scale project and team collaboration.
