Red Hat has announced the availability of a set of enterprise-grade Linux container solutions. Red Hat\u2019s container portfolio spans over free development tools to container platforms that integrates management, Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Containers-as-a-Service (CaaS). Addressing modernisation of existing IT investments and innovation alike, Red Hat now enables customers to better leverage the full benefits of containerisation with more secure, portable and consistent container-based solutions, supporting key open standards such as the Open Container Initiative (OCI) container format and Kubernetes orchestration.<\/p>\n
Built on the enterprise-grade backbone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat\u2019s portfolio of Linux container solutions aims to answer emerging business needs by offering:<\/p>\n
\u201cRegardless of hype, containers are Linux at their core, albeit packaged in a way that allows for portability across the hybrid cloud, from on-premise to multiple public clouds. Enterprise-grade applications require many things, however, and these requirements do not change in a container-centric world; only when orchestration, management and scale are more securely and reliably added can containers enter the enterprise mainstream. Today, Red Hat has introduced the industry\u2019s broadest portfolio of enterprise-grade, Linux container products, backed by our award-winning support and vast partner ecosystem. Red Hat\u2019s new container portfolio addresses needs across IT organisations – providing developers with tools to build cloud-native and containerised enterprise applications, enabling operations teams to manage new cloud-scale container infrastructure, and helping businesses to transform their data centres to fully embrace the benefits of Linux containers,\u201d says Paul Cormier, president, Product and Technologies, Red Hat<\/em><\/p>\n Red Hat OpenShift <\/strong><\/p>\n In<\/a> June<\/a> 2015<\/a>, Red Hat OpenShift became a container-centric, hybrid cloud solution built from the Docker, Kubernetes, Project Atomic and OpenShift Origin upstream projects with Red Hat Enterprise Linux as its foundation.<\/p>\n Today, Red Hat announced a broad expansion of its container offerings based on the OpenShift technology, aimed at helping enterprises to completely embrace Linux containers across consumption models, from the developer desktop to production environments to the hybrid cloud. Red Hat OpenShift now addresses needs across the Linux container adoption lifecycle, including:<\/p>\n Red Hat Gluster Storage<\/strong><\/p>\n As enterprises move to an open hybrid cloud environment, software-defined storage becomes a necessity. Red Hat has launched containerized Red Hat Gluster Storage<\/a>, available now via the Red Hat Container Registry. Bringing enterprises closer to the vision of Storage-as-a-Service, this new offering enables storage to be deployed in standard containers, orchestrated by Kubernetes and managed just like any other application service running on Red Hat OpenShift, and includes full integration with Red Hat\u2019s entire container stack.<\/p>\n Red Hat CloudForms<\/strong><\/p>\n Management is a critical piece of enterprise-grade containers, and Red Hat CloudForms provides this with container visibility and control as a part of the Red Hat container stack. Combining hybrid cloud and container management into a single interface, Red Hat CloudForms gives users visibility into workloads running on Red Hat OpenShift and the hosting infrastructure. Combined with CloudForms\u2019 other management capabilities, users can manage relationships from the container through the platform layer to the Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) layer or the physical host.<\/p>\n Making innovation ready for the enterprise<\/strong><\/p>\n Red Hat recently launched Red<\/a> Hat<\/a> Open<\/a> Innovation<\/a> Labs<\/a>, which helps customers rapidly develop and integrate applications using microservices, deploy them in containers, and deliver them using DevOps methodologies across physical, cloud and mobile environments that can quickly scale up or down on-demand.<\/p>\n \t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Red Hat has announced the availability of a set of enterprise-grade Linux container solutions.
