Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Key features, themes, and objectives of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, in a talk delivered by Engineering Vice President Tim Burke. Find out what's new, what's improved, and what is most important in the newest release of the Red Hat operating system.

Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® has a kernel feature called control groups, or cgroups. This feature allows you to allocate resources–such as CPU time, system memory, network bandwidth, or a combination of these resources–among user-defined processes. This feature is also used to implement Linux containers. See how system administrators can gain fine-grained control over system resources and divide them among tasks and users, thus increasing overall system efficiency.

ING Services Poland needed to reduce IT architecture maintenance costs and accelerate delivery of platforms on which the business applications for clients from the ING Group are built. After implementing Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Red Hat JBoss Middleware technologies, the company has met its objectives to speed up the applications delivery from weeks to days, to reduce costs of services to 1/3 and has managed to win new internal clients.

Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® Atomic Host is a small footprint kernel optimized for running containers. This video demonstrates the deployment of an HPC application (Linpack) across multiple environments and discusses the benefits of running HPC applications in containers.

Red Hat® JBoss® Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) allows you to quickly deploy JavaEE-compliant applications on top of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. By utilizing Linux containers you can create a consistent environment for running EAP that will include all necessary application dependencies, like OpenJDK and any Java applications that you need to deploy or distribute. This demonstration provides step-by-step instructions on how to set up such configurations.

When is free Linux more expensive? When you have an enterprise to run. Every IT organization is looking for ways to be more efficient. What you may not realize is that pieces of your infrastructure like community Linux are actually making your job more difficult. Red Hat can help. This video demonstrates how standardizing on Red Hat Enterprise Linux can save your organization money and make you more productive and more efficient.

In this demo, Scott Collier shows how to use Docker containers (the contents of an image and its features) to cat out contents of /etc/host, launch a web server, and bindmounting log files to see activity on host machines.

Mission-critical RAS capabilities on Intel hardware. Applications that run best on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Scalability, flexibility, reliability. All these factors contribute to the highest levels of performance made possible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Hear our partners--IBM, HP, Dell, BMC, and more--explain why.

Join Red Hat on May 15, 2012 to celebrate 10 years of Red Hat Enterprise Linux

In this session from the 2012 Red Hat Summit, Andrew Cathrow, product manager, and Chuck Dubuque, product marketing manager for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization. They discuss Red Hat virtualization, including Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3, and the past, present, and future of virtualization technology. Dubuque discusses the current environment, including virtualization competitor VMware, and the opportunity that a second source for virtualization--a open standards source--offers. He then offers details about Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, including information about management features, hypervisor technology, specVIRT success, and opportunities for cost savings. Cathow then joins in to talk about development of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3 and 3.1, and the growth of the communities surrounding it, including Fedora and oVirt. Cathow highlights features and changes in Red Hat Enteprise Virtualization, including: - OpenJDK requirement for proprietary Oracle JRE is eliminated. - Support for Jasper 4.7 and two new directory servers - Scalability to 160 Virtual CPUs per VM and 2T virtual RAM per VM - enhanced physical to virtual migration (P2V) - Live snapshots - Shared disks - SDK availability - new top-level manager for managing disks - direct LUN access Cathow details many other system and version features, including a overview of key technologies for future versions of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization and Red Hat Enterprise Linux. He also intermittantly takes questions from the audience. Watch more 2012 Red Hat Summit and JBoss World videos from Red Hat: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL995CD1141C3330D5&feature=plcp

Ever wonder how great features make it from the community into enterprise-ready technology like Red Hat(R) Enterprise Linu(R)? Fedora Project Leader Paul Friends explains how projects started upstream gain in popularity and maturity, are hardened and tested, and eventually make their way to enterprise solutions.

In this two-part session, Mark Heslin will review the various concepts, components, and configuration options available for integrating the mission-critical readiness of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 into Active Directory domain environments. Emphasis will be placed on understanding the pros and cons of each approach, best practices, and guidelines for selecting the best configuration.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux transformed enterprise IT, and dramatically changed the software industry forever. By combining the open source development model with a customer-centric subscription based business model, Red Hat gave enterprise customers a way to leverage the value of open source in a way that made sense for them, and that spurred the adoption of Linux across the enterprise. But it wasn't easy. There were doubts and obstacles to overcome, customers and partners to convince, and millions of developers to collaborate with. But with commitment and vision, it all just worked.

In this 'Best of' session at the 2012 Red Hat Summit and JBoss World, Tim Burke, vice president of Linux Engineering at Red Hat, describes feature enhancements in recently released versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Burke then has his team of engineering development managers highlight their technology area and key initiatives. They also discuss emerging technologies targeted for delivery in future releases. Burke first gives a brief Red Hat Enterprise Linux life cycle overview, and an explanation of various themes within Linux development today. He then explores timeframes and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 feature possibilities and Fedora 18 enhancements. He then turns the session over to his teams, who present technology area highlights, including information about: - virtualization - kernel and virtual memory - hardware enablement - storage and volume management - filesystem and Gluster Watch Part 2 of this session video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-cDorXHO5U&list=PL995CD1141C3330D5&index=17&feature=plpp_video Watch more 2012 Red Hat Summit and JBoss World videos: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL995CD1141C3330D5&feature=plcp
