红帽发布红帽企业Linux 8最新版本 智能监控能力助力企业IT增效

中国北京 -

红帽企业Linux 8.2专为混合云时代的互连特性打造,在原来可靠、稳定和生产就绪等特性的基础上,带来更多新的功能。红帽企业Linux 8平台的新增功能可帮助企业从现有的红帽企业Linux订阅中获取更多价值:

  • 通过升级红帽智能分析,获得全新智能管理和监控能力

  • 更强的容器工具

  • 为Linux专家和新手提供更顺畅的用户体验

为分散的IT部门提供更智能的监控能力

当下,全球正在积极应对新冠肺炎疫情,越来越多的IT组织进入远程运营模式,或是面临运营人员不足的情况。相比以往,IT团队现在更需要对那些分布在混合云和多云环境中的,大小、规模和复杂度不尽相同的企业技术堆栈底层基础进行监控、管理和分析。凭借红帽智能分析的升级功能,红帽企业Linux可以智能地检测、诊断并解决潜在问题,避免企业生产受到影响。

红帽智能分析是红帽的主动运营与安全风险管理类产品,红帽企业Linux 6.4及以上版本的订阅用户均可获取。该服务的最新升级增加了全新的用例功能和特性,包括:

  • IT安全、合规状态和运营效率的可视化功能得到改善,可通过智能方式,提高大型复杂环境的管理效率,并改善部署的安全性和合规性。

  • 全新的策略和补丁服务,帮助企业制定和监控重要的内部策略,并确定适用于红帽企业Linux实例的红帽产品报告以及修复指导。

  • 漂移服务可帮助IT团队将系统与基准进行比较,并为降低复杂性与加速故障排除的策略提供指导标准

红帽企业Linux 8.2在监控和性能方面还有以下更新:

  • Control Groups (cgroups) v2带来资源管理能力提升,可通过预留内存和设置用量极限/限制,对内存使用进行限制,从而预防某个进程过度消耗内存,导致系统故障或降速。

  • 通过 NUMA和sub-NUMA服务策略,提升对性能敏感型工作负载的优化能力。

  • Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) 5.0.2增加了Microsoft SQL Server 2019的采集代理,可帮助收集和分析SQL Server相关的大量指标,为数据库和操作系统调整提供更明确的参考。

  • 红帽订阅表,通过该软件即服务 (SaaS) 工具,可帮助用户更加轻松地查看和管理混合云基础架构中的红帽企业Linux和红帽OpenShift容器平台订阅。

面向未来不断演进的容器工具

容器化工作负载为通往数字化转型和云原生指出了一条明路,但是用来构建应用的工具,需要在实现创新与稳定支持的生命周期之间找到平衡点。红帽企业Linux 8.2为红帽容器工具提供升级的应用流,同时还提供了长达24个月的支持。此外,针对那些希望在容器内部构建容器以获得更高的隔离和安全层级的企业,红帽还在Tech Preview上发布了Skopeo和Buildah的容器化版本

为了进一步提升容器化工作负载的安全性,红帽企业Linux 8.2引入了全新工具Udica,能更加轻松地创建以容器为中心的定制化SELinux安全策略。Udica应用于特定工作负载,可以降低某流程“脱离”容器并导致其他容器或主机本身出现问题的风险。

红帽企业Linux 8.2还推出了Red Hat Universal Base Image的增强功能,包括:

  • OpenJDK和.NET 3.0为开发人员构建红帽认证就绪型云原生应用提供更多选择。

  • 通过单个命令即可访问与指定映像相关的源代码,使红帽合作伙伴能够更加轻松地满足开源许可对于源代码的要求

进一步简化用户体验

Linux不断发展,现在已经成为企业IT的支柱,红帽企业Linux 8.2也着力降低新用户和现有用户的使用门槛。为提高易用性和整体用户体验,红帽企业Linux 8.2新增了以下功能:

  • 一体化的红帽企业Linux订阅注册成为安装过程的一部分,为新安装的用户提供更简单的上手体验。

  • 安装过程中支持启用红帽智能分析功能,可简化其在任何规模的红帽企业Linux环境中的启动过程。

  • 通过就地升级测试、红帽智能分析规则助推升级以及可以把工作负载从尚未支持的红帽企业Linux克隆(如CentOS)转移到全球领先的企业Linux平台上的Convert2RHEL工具,来持续完善和控制红帽企业Linux生命周期。

上市时间

红帽企业Linux 8.2将于近期通过红帽客户门户(Red Hat Customer Portal)全面上市。
