Generally that has been a responsibility of CloudForms / manageiq.  What
sorts of visualizations are you looking for?

By "use kubernetes" directly do you mean, "Using the kubernetes API's
directly?" or "Using an existing Kubernetes cluster?"  If the former, we
support all kubernetes GA level APIs, so you shouldn't be blocked there.
For the latter, most of the OpenShift security model requires protections
that are compiled into the kube binaries (multi-tenancy, protecting users
from escaping their namespaces), so today if you tried to run openshift on
top of raw kube you would not have any of the security model.
