The disclosure of a security flaw (CVE-2019-5736) in runc and docker illustrates a bad scenario for many IT administrators, managers, and CxOs. This isn't the first major flaw in a container runtime to come to light and, as container deployments and interest in associated technologies increase, it's unlikely to be the last.

As we prepare for Red Hat Summit 2019, we wanted to share some of the exciting keynotes you can expect from our main stage. Attendees will hear keynotes on the future of enterprise technology from several Red Hat leaders, as well as customers from across industries, including BMW Group, Delta Air Lines, and Lockheed Martin.

Stefanie Chiras, who heads up Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) at Red Hat, describes Red Hat as a portfolio company. "Making the operating system relevant in the context of hybrid cloud is key to us. Sometimes people forget about the things that have to fundamentally work. But when they don't work, everything falls apart."

Red Hat announced an expansion of its integration product portfolio with new components and capabilities for connecting applications, data and devices across hybrid architectures. The additions are featured in the latest release of Red Hat Integration, and include Red Hat AMQ Online, Red Hat AMQ Streams, new connectors for Red Hat Fuse Online, and end-to-end application programming interface (API) lifecycle support.

Red Hat CloudForms 4.7 includes deeper integration with Red Hat Ansible Automation and new infrastructure integrations designed to help streamline and simplify IT management across hybrid cloud infrastructure.
