Red Hat Software Collections 2.3 and Red Hat Developer Toolset 6 Now Generally Available

Red Hat Enterprise Linux blog - Red Hat IT runs OpenShift Container Platform on Red Hat Virtualization and Ansible
Red Hat IT makes extensive use of our own product offerings to effectively manage and to scale our large IT infrastructure. Red Hat Virtualization plays a key role in Red Hat's overall IT infrastructure, as mentioned in a recent blog post "Red Hat Keeps the Lights on with Red Hat Virtualization". Red Hat runs our IT Managed Platform as a Service (PaaS) environment on top of Red Hat Virtualization using OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) in our product data centers. OCP on Red Hat Virtualization has enabled us to add new capabilities to our continuous integration/continuous deployment CI/CD toolbox. We have increased the cycle times and agility of our app teams. The application teams love the additional control and flexibility, not to mention the automation opportunities. The IT Platform Operations team take pride in the fact that we're running the above deployment on our existing, tried and tested Red Hat Virtualization infrastructure; so we know it's rock solid. We've only scratched the surface on what we can do with OSCP and with our Ansible Red Hat Virtualization automation, and we're looking forward to doing more with the platform.
