Red Hat OpenShift
Red Hat OpenShift is a hybrid cloud application platform, which provides tools and services to support end-to-end application lifecycle and it has Red Hat Enterprise Linux as its operating foundation. It provides flexibility through self-managed or fully managed cloud service editions and functions effectively to automate operations and streamline application lifecycle management.
Developers can use Jenkins, Java, and Python to develop their applications and can package them with runtimes and libraries through containers powered by Kubernetes capabilities. Red Hat OpenShift uses Service Mesh and provides a uniform way to connect, manage, and create an integrated network of collections of decentralized microservices, which are created as the number of applications increases. It has advanced built-in security features to ensure a high level of protection for companies’ confidential data.
The power of artificial intelligence (AI) is also leveraged through OpenShift AI. The platform is flexible and scalable thanks to AI and machine learning (ML) capabilities that enable companies to develop AI-enabled applications across hybrid cloud environments.
