You should never replace the system Python on RHEL/CentOS. If you have applications that require a different versions then install them separately (in a VirtualEnv, /usr/local, /opt or many other methods).

I was exploring to see if there is any easy away from having multiple versions of python.

I think upgrading RHEL 6 default Python to 2.7 is a big risk because core system services where developed and tested on 2.6 As far as I now, there is not an official way of running Ambari on an non system default python version. Therefore, my advice if possible is that you upgrade RHEL to 7. I wonder why do you care which version of Python is Ambari using.
