Virtualization

Red Hat OpenShift is a powerful platform that builds upon Kubernetes — a system for automating deployment, scaling, and managing containerized applications — by enhancing it with additional features and capabilities.

OpenShift enables you to operate and oversee containers and virtual machines within a unified platform. This ability bridges the gap between traditional and modern applications, making it easier to manage mixed workloads. By consolidating these workloads onto a single, integrated platform, your organization can become more flexible and efficient.

Moreover, OpenShift’s integration with Kubernetes ensures that you have a robust container orchestration system with open source solutions. This winning combination gives you access to the extensive innovation and improvements driven by the global Kubernetes community.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux offers a high-performing, secure, and stable operating system that can run your virtual environments easily. Its reliability makes it a great choice if you’re looking to implement virtualization.

RHEL supports both host-based and guest-based virtualization, so you can run RHEL as a host that supports virtual machines or as a guest operating system inside a virtual machine. Either way, you get a scalable, flexible solution to meet your requirements.

Beyond its basic capabilities, RHEL provides tools specifically designed for virtualization management, such as the Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) hypervisor and the libvirt library. These tools simplify the creation, migration, and management of virtual machines, offering you a comprehensive and efficient virtualization solution.
