Red Hat , and Oracle recently announced a collaboration that has made Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) certified to run on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) , Oracle 's cloud services platform. The partnership aims to offer customers a wider range of operating systems options to run on OCI .
Red Hat , an IBM subsidiary, has developed RHEL , a commercial open-source Linux distribution designed for the commercial market. As part of Red Hat 's hybrid cloud technology portfolio, RHEL serves as its backbone. This portfolio also comprises Red Hat OpenShift , the company's Kubernetes container platform, and the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform , an enterprise IT automation solution, as well as technologies supporting the modern cloud-native stack.
نتيجة لهذا التعاون Red Hat and Oracle can now build a foundation for future-forward computing deployments on RHEL , according to Leo Leung, Vice President of OCI and Oracle Technology at Oracle . This allows these customers to retain the value of their existing IT investments.
أشار ليونغ إلى أنه Red Hat customers can now migrate the supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux onto OCI . This collaboration edition starts with flexible virtual machines, enabling customers to choose exact core and memory requirements and pay for only what they need.
Oracle , which involves 41 public cloud regions, including government-focused regions, is also supported for RHEL deployment on OCI . Customers can deploy OCI on-premises, running in their data centers or collocated sites, with Oracle providing the full hardware and software stack.
RHEL on OCI allows joint customers to take advantage of both companies' offerings. Currently, around 90% of Fortune 500 companies rely on Red Hat and Oracle solutions, many of whom use RHEL as their OS foundation. Meanwhile, OCI provides these companies with high-performing, mission-critical cloud services to support their digital-forward operations.
وذكر ليونغ أن خطط التصديق RHEL on OCI 's bare-metal servers are underway, which would offer improved isolation and performance compared to on-premises environments. This collaboration signals an increased interest in no-code and low-code platforms, which, for example, are offered by AppMaster , a powerful no-code tool for creating web, mobile, and backend applications.
