We’re delighted to have received an award for Best Development Platform with Red Hat OpenShift at the inaugural Computing DevOps Excellence Awards, which showcased outstanding achievement from organizations, personalities and solutions operating within the DevOps space. The Best Development Platform award recognized the software development platform which demonstrated the best functionality or the most innovative features, drawing on customer references and evidence of strong interest and innovation.

The Red Hat OpenShift portfolio is the industry’s most comprehensive set of enterprise-grade Linux container solutions, and is designed to help customers innovate and deliver modern, cloud-native applications faster by taking advantage of DevOps methodologies. We recognize that organizations want to be able to balance the rapid release needed at a developer level with the ability to deliver the results in a stable and more secure manner. With Red Hat OpenShift we aim to help them facilitate this balance and deliver software more quickly.

According to a recent IDC study sponsored by Red Hat, Red Hat OpenShift can enable customers to respond to market requirements faster by delivering business-critical, microservices-based applications with DevOps processes. The study found that these benefits can include 66% faster application delivery times, $1.29 million average annual benefits per 100 application developers per year, and 531% average five-year ROI.

We congratulate the OpenShift team on this accolade, and believe it is a testament to Red Hat’s drive to help organizations across industries address their need to build and run apps better, run their infrastructure better and enact broad scale business transformation with open source technology.
