Red Hat Summit: Connect 2023

Enterprise Open Source Software as part of digital transformation has transformed the way enterprises build and deliver applications. Astoundingly, more than two-thirds of applications rely on open source software. However, the challenge lies in securing and eliminating vulnerabilities during the building and deployment process. Introducing the Trusted Software Supply Chain—a groundbreaking initiative leveraging Red Hat's three decades of experience in curating enterprise-grade software. Prepare for an auditable and secured end-to-end application build and deployment pipeline. With Red Hat, you'll embark on an exciting journey, where innovation and security converge. Embrace the future, as this revolution unveils endless possibilities.

AI is the latest hot trend in the industry now. Red Hat has been working towards this for some time. We began with our open-source project, Open Data Hub, and later introduced OpenShift Data Science, continuing to expand it into the OpenShift AI portfolio. Along this journey, we have also assisted customers like NTT Data, Exxon, and others in building AI solutions on top of our platform. With OpenShift AI, Red Hat provides a modern data analytics platform that delivers high-quality data to intelligent applications quickly and consistently, driving business value with transparency and audibility.

Imagine a world where innovation knows no bounds and flexibility reigns supreme—a realm where enterprises achieve faster innovation, flexible operating models, and accelerated business outcomes, all while delivering an exceptional customer experience. Join us in this captivating session as we delve into the transformative realm of Red Hat cloud services. Embrace innovation and become the driving force in the modern digital economy. Get ready to redefine success and embark on an extraordinary journey towards becoming a future-focused, outcome-driven enterprise!

Embark on a journey of innovation and cloud with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Join us as we unveil Red Hat's vision for the future of Linux, where stability, reliability, and innovation converge. Discover how RHEL delivers faster innovation while maintaining its industry-leading standards. Uncover the power of integrating Linux services in the cloud, simplifying management and scalability across diverse environments. For CentOS Linux 7 users, this session is a must-attend, as we explore the compelling reasons to upgrade to RHEL. Unlock long-term support, leverage Red Hat Insights, and harness automation tools for increased cost savings and efficiency. Take the leap towards the full potential of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, combining stability, innovation, and the agility of cloud services.

IT organizations are continually looking for ways to deliver IT services to their businesses more efficiently. Automation is key. It can help teams automate routine tasks so there is more time for innovation, ensuring consistent change and helping create overall resilience. With Event-Driven Ansible, teams can now complete important tasks automatically, whether resetting a router in the middle of the night or automatically responding to conditions when they occur with speed and resilience. This popular, new technology makes it easier for teams to flexibly build this type of automatic response into their operations. It is flexible from source to rule to action and can be used by teams without an extended project or deep coding skills. In additon, we explore at a high level, what efficiencies that Ansible Lightspeed (Generative AI) will bring to developing enterprise automation.

Many organizations report hybrid cloud resources that are idle, underused, or over-provisioned, and they may have additional challenges with skill shortages, disparate teams, and the increasing demand to do more with fewer resources.  Red Hat’s hyperscaler cloud offerings, paired with the Ansible Content Collections (out-of-the-box integrations and automation workflows) and provided through the new hybrid cloud automation initiative, can accelerate the adoption of automation and greatly improve its time-to-value. In this session, you will learn how customers use hybrid cloud content (such as our certified integration with Terraform) to automate the full life cycle of their applications, perform cluster provisioning, migrate workloads from on-premise VMware vSphere to Red Hat OpenShift, manage it all at scale from their hyperscaler of choice (such as Amazon AWS or Microsoft Azure). We will share real-world examples showing how Ansible Automation Platform can enhance Red Hat OpenShift hybrid cloud architectures.
