Red Hat, Inc. introduces new capabilities and enhancements for Red Hat OpenShift. The new capabilities aim to accelerate innovation across the hybrid cloud, simplify application development, and stringent security and compliance requirements.
Mike Barrett, vice president and general manager of Hybrid Cloud Platforms at Red Hat, said: "Red Hat continues to build new capabilities and enhancements into Red Hat OpenShift to help organisations deliver on their current IT goals as well as meet the needs of tomorrow—from migrating off legacy virtualisation platforms to powering intelligent AI-enabled workloads."
Red Hat OpenShift Virtualisation
Red Hat OpenShift 4.17 includes enhancements to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualisation, which claims to improve virtualised workload management through key features, including improved safe memory oversubscription and dynamic workload rebalancing.
In addition, Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes, available separately or as part of Red Hat OpenShift Platform Plus, has improved search and filtering for virtual machines to manage VMs across multiple clusters.
Security and innovation
Red Hat OpenShift 4.17 also introduces new security features for organisations to focus on innovation without compromising security.
"With Red Hat OpenShift, we now have a streamlined process for development, enabling our IT teams to be more efficient and quickly deliver high-quality applications. Additionally, OpenShift's built-in security features combined with our use of Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security provides Tet peace of mind that we are meeting stringent security and compliance requirements," Kristaps Kulis, solutions architect of SIA Tet, said.
The new features are delivered with the general availability of Red Hat OpenShift 4.17
