Follow UsDUBAI, UAE: Red Hat Inc. announced that the Red Hat OpenStack Cloud Infrastructure Partner Network ecosystem is now the world's largest ecosystem for commercial OpenStack deployments. Additionally, Red Hat announced a new set of offerings as part of the program.
As the recognized leader in enterprise Linux, Red Hat has a long history of building successful ecosystems designed to provide a standardized, supported and innovative set of solutions for customers building their next-generation infrastructure.
Thousands of Red Hat Enterprise Linux ecosystem partners and many of the world's leading enterprises have benefited from Red Hat's commitment to a long and stable product lifecycle; tested and secure enterprise-grade solutions; and robust integration through standard interfaces and APIs.
Through the fast-growing Red Hat OpenStack Cloud Infrastructure Partner Network and Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Certification, Red Hat is working to bring customers the same value and benefits they have found through Red Hat's existing ecosystems.
The Red Hat Cloud Infrastructure Partner Network connects both business and technical resources to third-party technology companies who are aligning with Red Hat's OpenStack product offerings. Since the launch of the program in April 2013, hundreds of software, plug-ins, and hardware systems have been added to the list of certified and supported OpenStack commercial solutions.
The partners building these solutions work closely with Red Hat to offer customers an enterprise-ready and commercial-grade OpenStack infrastructure, with complementary technologies integrated across compute, networking and storage.
With the announcement, the Red Hat Enterprise OpenStack Certification, launched in June 2013, has expanded beyond OpenStack Compute (Nova), OpenStack Networking (Neutron), and OpenStack Block Storage (Cinder) to include certification protocols for advanced networking services (Neutron extensions), OpenStack Object Storage (Swift) and OpenStack Image Storage (Glance).
Companies with OpenStack plug-ins for networking, storage and other OpenStack services work with the Red Hat certification teams and the Red Hat certification test suites to provide consistent performance and compatibility with Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform.
