This morning, Red Hat announced the general availability of OpenShift Enterprise 3.1 as well as a public preview of Red Hat Atomic Enterprise Platform. Red Hat’s updated container offerings are:

  • OpenShift Enterprise 3.1, the latest version of Red Hat’s application platform designed to build, deploy and run stateful and stateless applications on private and public cloud infrastructure.
  • Red Hat Atomic Enterprise Platform Public Preview, an optimized container infrastructure platform for deploying, running and managing containers across the enterprise.

Both enable enterprises to develop, integrate, deploy, and manage a variety of applications consistently across a more secure, container-optimized infrastructure. If you’re looking to adopt container-based architectures, OpenShift and Atomic allow you to use Docker-formatted Linux containers to create microservices-based applications and modernize traditional workloads - all with the security of a consistent foundation based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

OpenShift Enterprise 3.1

The newest release of OpenShift Enterprise updates the Docker and Kubernetes experience for developers, adds middleware services for OpenShift, and expands OpenStack integration. New and enhanced capabilities within OpenShift Enterprise 3.1 include:

The platform is powered by a scale-out cluster of Red Hat Enterprise Linux Atomic Hosts or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 instances, forming the enterprise-class foundation for delivering both cloud-native and traditional applications with containers. Red Hat Atomic Enterprise Platform includes:
