Adobe Systems, a long-time user of Red Hat® Enterprise Linux®, wanted to offer its enterprise customers easy access to sandbox resources to evaluate and prototype solutions using Adobe products. Turning to the cloud, Adobe used Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Amazon Web Services (AWS) to not only deliver a sandbox solution, but also to offer customers a Software- as-a-Service (SaaS) option for deploying Adobe-based solutions. Today, Adobe is using the Red Hat platform and Amazon Web Services to help customers simplify deployment, lower cost of ownership, and accelerate time to value.

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.

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.

Red Hat Software Collections - Dan Courcy

In most subscriptions, Red Hat offers access to the Red Hat Software Collections (RHSCL) and Developer Toolset (DTS). RHSCL has 20+ content sets, providing recent-but-stable versions of languages, databases, web servers, etc.—like, ruby 2.2, postgresql 9.4, and nginx 1.6—that you use for development and production runtime. The DTS provides recent-but-stable content used mainly in development—for example, Eclipse, gcc, git. Come learn how and when to use this content in RPMs and Docker containers. We will show you how to launch Drupal in minutes and install Eclipse Mars. We will also demonstrate how to build containers using this content, which makes your Dockerfiles much simpler. Lastly, we will show you how OpenShift 3 can use the same content sets.
