Accelerate your innovation

Join this panel of industry experts as they discuss best practices for running AI/ML workloads on OpenShift, the role of Kubernetes in AI-driven applications, and real-world case studies demonstrating success in production environments.

Facing the collision of application modernization, the Generative AI revolution, and escalating software supply chain attacks, enterprise technologists require a decisive advantage. The Red Hat Advanced Developer Suite (RHADS) delivers this by transforming development teams from siloed efforts into a secure, competitive powerhouse. By leveraging Platform Engineering, RHADS abstracts critical complexity and enforces automated, compliant workflows across the hybrid cloud. This enables developers to accelerate innovation using the self-service Red Hat Developer Hub, while security is intrinsically guaranteed through the Red Hat Trusted Software Supply Chain and its automated artifact provenance. RHADS is the essential framework for high-velocity development, ensuring speed, control, and unbreakable security in the AI era.

Facing uncertainty with your current virtualization platform due to rising costs and vendor lock-in? The need to migrate is often urgent, but the path forward can seem complex. This session is designed to address these challenges head-on. We'll introduce OpenShift Virtualization with a focus on your first priority: seamless and low-risk migration. Learn how our customer-centric approach and tools, including the powerful Ansible Automation Platform for at-scale migrations, simplify the transition of your existing virtual machines (VMs), minimizing disruption and building operational confidence from day one.

But migration is just the beginning. Discover how bringing your VMs to OpenShift places you on a direct path to modernization. By unifying VMs and containers on a single, powerful platform, you can break down operational silos, gain consistent management, and enhance security. This session will show you how OpenShift Virtualization puts you in control, allowing you to modernize at your own pace while immediately benefiting from streamlined operations and increased day 2 automation efficiency with Ansible, all on a future-proof foundation for your applications.

How does a major European capital harness the speed of Generative AI while maintaining strict data sovereignty? Join us for an exclusive look at WienKI (ViennaAI), the Red Hat 2025 Innovation Award-winning project transforming public administration in the City of Vienna.

Faced with the challenge of a workforce where nearly a third of employees are set to retire within five years, the City of Vienna needed to streamline services without compromising security. In this session, Dominik Zmuda (City of Vienna) and David Hanacek (Red Hat) will guide you through the solution: a standardized, scalable AI platform built on Microsoft Azure Red Hat OpenShift.

Generative AI is transforming the enterprise application development lifecycle, driving significant productivity gains through two complementary approaches: Vibe Coding (human-in-the-loop, prompt-driven creation) and Agentic Coding (delegating multi-step tasks to autonomous agents). However, this acceleration introduces critical enterprise risks, including Shadow AI, technology sprawl, and ambiguous ownership. To navigate this landscape successfully, organizations must adopt a strategic framework built on three essential pillars: Platform Engineering to abstract complexity and provide consistent tooling; a Platform-as-a-Product mindset for continuous evolution and developer satisfaction; and robust Software Supply Chain Security for protection across the entire development lifecycle. This holistic approach balances AI innovation with responsibility, ensuring developers maintain full accountability for secure, compliant, and maintainable enterprise applications.

We understand that virtual machine (VM) migrations can be intimidating. Learning a new suite of tools while minimizing downtime of critical workloads, often under tight deadlines, can feel overwhelming. This session is designed to simplify that process.

We will walk through the migration toolkit for virtualization (MTV) and how it enables a smooth transition from traditional virtualization platforms to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization. You’ll learn about MTV’s key components, how to make a migration successful, and how to approach large-scale VM moves with confidence.   

We’ll also show how to accelerate and automate migrations through integrations with certified storage providers and the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, helping you reduce manual work and streamline repetitive tasks. Whether you’re beginning to reevaluate your current virtualization platform or already planning a move to OpenShift, this session will help you understand how to plan, prepare, and execute your migration strategy with confidence.

Introducing OpenShift Lightspeed, a virtual assistant integrated into the OpenShift web console designed to boost productivity and accessibility for users of all skill levels. It provides detailed guidance, troubleshooting assistance, and accelerates skill development by offering step-by-step instructions and real-time cluster introspection. Learn how Lightspeed streamlines daily tasks, offers accurate, context-aware answers, and ensures data privacy with flexible model hosting options.

In this session, business leaders and application development executives will discover how key middleware technologies - such as Data Streaming, can serve as a powerful catalyst for accelerating AI application development.  We’ll explore how these foundational technologies, included in Red Hat Application Foundations, enable organizations to streamline workflows, integrate disparate data sources, and manage complex APIs - ultimately reducing time-to-market and driving innovation.   Through real-world use cases, we’ll demonstrate how Red Hat Application Foundations can empower your development teams to build smarter, more scalable AI solutions faster, with greater flexibility and security.

Migrating Virtual Machines (VMs) to OpenShift Virtualization is just the beginning. This session explores Day 2 management and modernization strategies that unlock the full value of OpenShift’s cloud-native capabilities. Learn how to bring VMs into a unified platform enabling centralized visibility, policy-driven automation, and consistent security practices across both types of infrastructure. We'll discuss how OpenShift Virtualization supports lifecycle management tasks like patching, monitoring, backup, and autoscaling.

Attendees will also see how OpenShift Virtualization provides a pathway to hybrid and multicloud operations. Customers can reduce cloud spend and improve resource efficiency while seamlessly scaling applications across environments and ensuring operational consistency. Whether teams are managing large fleets of VMs, introducing DevOps practices, or planning to extend infrastructure to the cloud, this session provides practical guidance on managing, modernizing, and scaling virtualized environments.
