Open Sourcing The Enterprise: Ten Years Of Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Red Hat Developer Program

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.

Enabling JBoss for operations

Red Hat Developer Program

Chris Morgan, senior product marketing manager at JBoss, explains how JBoss Operations Network (JBoss ON) makes managing applications simpler. Like a modern car dashboard, JBoss ON provides an integrated, easy-to-use collection of functional tools. And it's open source. Like Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Fedora, JBoss ON has a community version, Jopr, that provides bleeding-edge technology and the breeding ground for tomorrow's JBoss ON technologies. "Operations Network brings to life what's going on with JBoss." -- Chris Morgan See more Red Hat videos: http://www.redhat.com/videos/

Why I started using containers

Konrad Kleine

A few years back (2013-2016) I was working as a C++ Software Development Engineer at Intel on a monolithic product with a backend written in C++ and a web frontend written in Java. The product was shipped complete with hardware and as a VMware image. Internally we kept ISO CD images on a shared server for every released or QA approved version of the product. Built into the product was a very clever issue reporting mechanism that allowed us, developers...

Containerizing open-vm-tools - Part 2: Atomic CLI and Converting to a Systems Container

davis phillips

The content of the previous post discussed creating the open-vm-tools container’s Dockerfile and automating its started up via systemd with a unit file. Open-vm-tools as a service might need to start before the docker runtime or even the network stack, this leads us to runc and system containers. If you’ve finished the first article you have a running open-vm-tools Docker container. docker ps CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES 5428906cd366 open-vm-tools "/bin/sh -c /usr/bin/" 13 seconds ago Up...

Advanced Linux Commands Cheat Sheet is Here

Maxim Burgerhout

Before I came to Red Hat, I used to work for a Red Hat partner as a consultant and architect. During that time, I was involved in quite a few situations where I had to help people move from one platform to another, most often from some flavor of Unix to Red Hat Enterprise Linux. As Linux is the de facto standard platform for many development teams, it seemed to make sense to translate some of that experience into a...

Containerizing open-vm-tools - Part 1: The Dockerfile and constructing a systemd unit file

davis phillips

While validating OpenShift Container Platform on a VMware platform the usage of Atomic OS was also a requirement. In the initial reference architecture, the decision was made to use Red Hat Enterprise Linux as the platform. This platform was then customized and the same packages as in Atomic were installed via Ansible and Red Hat Network. The github repo with those playbooks is here: https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible-contrib/tree/master/reference-architecture/vmware-ansible . These playbooks will guide you from start to finish to deploying OCP on VMware...

Preparing CentOS 6.8 for Work

Sergey Iryupin

I came across Linux in 2005, it was Debian. Then followed a love affair with Ubuntu, for which in March 2009 I purchased a netbook Asus EeePC 1000. In 2010, I began to contribute to ALT Linux participating in the “ School Project” and even became a basic256 package maintainer. The last few years my EeePC with Ubuntu peacefully rested deep in my cupboard. Then there was a chance to clean off the dust. There was a task to get...

Edit, Compile and Debug .NET on Linux using VS Code

Don Schenck +1

One of the best features of Visual Studio is the ability to launch and debug an application from within the IDE. This is not an uncommon feature nowadays. When running .NET on Linux, however, you can't use Visual Studio as your IDE. What to do? The answer is Visual Studio Code, a free IDE that will allow you to edit, compile, launch, and debug your application from within your IDE. This post will guide you through this cycle. Note: I'm...

The Evolution of a Linux Container

Don Schenck

(Probably, a more accurate title would be "The Evolution of a Linux Container Developer") Since .NET now runs on Linux (as well as Windows and macOS), the whole world of Linux containers and microservices has opened up to .NET developers. With a large pool of developers, a long track record of success, and performance numbers that are impressive, .NET offers a great opportunity to expand the world of Linux containers to formerly Windows-centric developers. While it’s tempting to rush in...
