Red Hat launches On-Ramp to drive enterprise adoption of OpenStack

DUBAI, UAE: Red Hat Inc, leading provider of open source solutions, announced a new initiative called On-Ramp to Enterprise OpenStack to drive enterprise adoption of OpenStack, the popular framework for building and managing private, public, and hybrid Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) clouds.

Red Hat is closely collaborating with Intel on the On-Ramp to Enterprise OpenStack program, educating customers on the benefits and capabilities of Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform running on Intel Architecture and making it easier for organizations to evaluate and validate Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform for their private and hybrid cloud initiatives.

Through the new On-Ramp to Enterprise OpenStack program, organizations can build their open hybrid cloud strategy via education and easily evaluate Red Hat's OpenStack solutions. The On-Ramp to Enterprise OpenStack program has two specific components, which are the Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform on Intel Architecture TestFlight, and the On-Ramp to Enterprise OpenStack Road Tour.

Imad Sousou, VP and GM of Intel's Open Source Technology Center, said: "The On-Ramp to Enterprise OpenStack program for private, public, and hybrid cloud deployments is a natural extension of Intel and Red Hat's long-standing collaboration in enterprise Linux. The combination of Intel Architecture and Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform helps form a secure, trusted, high-performance platform for these cloud deployments and provides end users a quick and easy way to evaluate, learn about, and deploy important use cases like trusted compute pools."
