And the workloads need to be portable and scalable across bare metal servers, virtual machines, containers, and private and public clouds. They need a modern, security-oriented operating system (OS). That OS is [Red Hat® Enterprise Linux®](/en/technologies/linux-platforms/enterprise-linux). This video can't play due to privacy settings To change your settings, select the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer and opt in to "Advertising Cookies or try disabling adblockers." With a standard OS underlying your workloads, you can easily move them across environments—where it makes sense for your business. Red Hat Enterprise Linux gives you a consistent, stable, and high-performance platform across [hybrid cloud](/en/topics/cloud-computing/what-is-hybrid-cloud) deployments, along with built-in [manageability](/en/topics/management) and [integration](/en/topics/integration) with the broader Red Hat management and automation portfolio.
