Red Hat subscription model

Everything you need to know about your Red Hat subscription

Stable. Secure. Scalable. Red Hat® subscriptions provide enterprise-ready solutions that you can confidently deploy to manage even your most mission-critical applications.

To maintain an application infrastructure that meets your organization's continually expanding demands, you need more than a support contract. You need a proven, scalable, reliable, and secure enterprise platform. And a truly collaborative relationship with your technology vendor.

That's exactly what you get with your Red Hat subscription.
