Red Hat collaborates with RHIPE to expand cloud ecosystem

BANGALORE, INDIA: Red Hat, Inc., has announced collaboration with RHIPE (formerly NewLease), a global cloud channel company, to expand its cloud ecosystem in the region.

RHIPE is the first Red Hat Certified Cloud Provider distributor in the ASEAN regions of Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand. The collaboration will enable Red Hat to use RHIPE's expertise to identify, recruit, and enable cloud service providers into the network of Red Hat Certified Cloud Providers.

Red Hat's Certified Cloud Provider model is beneficial to service providers, giving them access to the firm's solutions and support to help customers who wish to leverage the firm's technologies on the cloud.

The Red Hat Certified Cloud Provider Program assembles the solutions cloud providers need to plan, build, manage and offer hosted cloud solutions and Red Hat technologies to customers.

A Red Hat Certified Cloud Provider offers a trusted destination for its customers, independent software vendors (ISVs), and partners to benefit from its offerings in public clouds.

Each provider meets testing and certification requirements to demonstrate that they can deliver a safe, scalable, supported and consistent environment for enterprise cloud deployments.

The Red Hat Certified Cloud Provider program provides customers, ISVs, and partners with the confidence that Red Hat product experts have validated the solution so that implementations begin with a solid foundation.
