Discover how Red Hat’s open hybrid cloud delivers IT services on any infrastructure quickly and cost effectively with a broad portfolio of hybrid cloud infrastructure, application services, cloud-native application development, and automation solutions.

Discover how to optimize resource allocation in your Kubernetes deployments by employing metrics in our upcoming webinar. We’ll delve into the intricacies of using metrics, including advanced techniques like calculating z-scores, to determine precise resource constraints for pods.

Resource constraints are crucial for maintaining stability and performance in Kubernetes environments. However, accurately defining these constraints can be a daunting task. This webinar will guide you through taking metrics-driven approaches to overcome this challenge. Our expert speaker will explore various metrics collection methods within Kubernetes, including tools like Prometheus. You’ll gain practical knowledge on selecting relevant metrics, such as CPU utilization, to understand your application's resource requirements comprehensively.

Unlocking Kubernetes Efficiency with Metrics-Driven Pod Constraints

IoT devices and other smart, connected equipment has increased the amount of data being created outside of traditional data center environments. As businesses look to leverage this data to make smarter, more accurate decisions, edge computing has emerged as a new paradigm to deploy infrastructure and applications in the field. However, this shift has created new challenges for IT in terms of managing, securing, and scaling these remote systems.

 

Join speakers from IDC, Red Hat and Insight to learn:

How edge computing combined with investments in data center and cloud is driving new business value

Strategies for edge automation to meet security and scalability requirements

Industry examples of how manufacturing and retail organizations are achieving success with edge computing

Scaling edge infrastructure and applications with automation

"Topics covered:
• The need to simplify in a hybrid world
• The path from non-paid to Enterprise distributions
• Approaches for simplifying your transition"

Improve your innovation in hybrid environments

Many organizations are entering into a phase of cost cutting efforts across all aspects of their business, especially for IT.  At times, these efforts rotate into a fervent slide into assessing IT spend via Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) which is the estimation of the expenses associated with purchasing, deploying, using, and retiring a software product.  Unfortunately, more often than not, this turns into a race to the bottom on spending with little regard to the business value outcomes of an organization’s spend reduction.  In this session, you will learn how to counter this by reframing TCO to Total Cost Optimization, which is the continuous discipline to drive spending and cost reduction, while maximizing business value. In other words, how do you keep an eye on spending, but do so while amplifying your return on investment (ROI).  This is where organizations shift spending to the left while the dollar-for-dollar outcomes produced are greater than anything possible with a lowest cost alternative. Compound this with cloud cost optimization strategies, to ensure your IT investment goes further now than in the past.


Don’t miss this session for LOB owners, CTOs, IT directors, and IT professionals as  industry experts share their real-world experiences of helping organizations maximize their IT spend through leveraging turn-key application platforms, hybrid cloud consistent hyperscaler services, and evolve their FinOps strategies for greater ROI and more competitive market offerings.

Maximizing cloud investments: The new TCO, Total Cost Optimization

Digital-first strategies are now entrenched across nearly every industry vertical, with C-suites embracing the need to deploy new software capabilities quickly to remain competitive and meet customer demand. One of the greatest challenges for most development organizations is to navigate the complex technology environments that need to span new cloud-native application development and legacy applications. This includes the challenge of getting new and legacy applications to share data and services without interruption. Adding to this complexity is the need to optimize with multicloud and hybrid cloud deployment scenarios, including making use of on-premise infrastructure.
For these reasons, organizations are increasingly prioritizing a unified platform for application development and delivery to serve as the foundation of their company’s software development life cycle (SDLC) needs. By focusing on platform technologies that span the SDLC, they can take advantage of automation and thereby achieve a variety of business benefits. 
IDC assessed the potential value of establishing a unified, comprehensive, and integrated development and delivery platform by extracting data from interviews conducted with organizations using Red Hat® solutions—including Red Hat OpenShift®, Red Hat Runtimes, and Red Hat Integration—to modernize their application environments and support application development efforts. IDC’s research shows that Red Hat customers achieved strong value through use of these solutions by making their development activities more scalable, timely, and impactful, even as they realized cost and operational efficiencies.

Cloud automation - A recipe for success

Top organizations are leveraging innovative software applications to address their modern organizational challenges. The combination of public cloud infrastructure and application/data services allows enterprises to develop applications faster than ever and provide better organizational outcomes. According to IDC, enterprises are placing increasing importance on ensuring that the new architecture is the foundation for future business needs.

In this on-demand video discussion, featuring IDC and Red Hat, you’ll learn how organizations are accelerating their cloud and application modernization strategy to drive innovation forward.

Driving Innovation: Accelerate Your Cloud Strategy to Drive More Customer Value

Red Hat has been instrumental in driving many open source community efforts around artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) technologies for more than 6 years through the Open Data Hub project. Open Data Hub is a fully open project that supports end-to-end AI/ML workflows running in containers on Red Hat® OpenShift®, a Kubernetes-powered application platform. Many organizations have used some of the technologies curated in the Open Data Hub project—such as Jupyter, TensorFlow, Pytorch, Kubeflow, and Ray—to jumpstart their own do-it-yourself efforts aimed at creating a core data science platform to build intelligent applications.

In addition to working closely with the open source community, Red Hat has responded to numerous requests to offer a paid and supported version of Open Data Hub. This has resulted in Red Hat OpenShift Data Science, a powerful platform for building, deploying, and monitoring AI/ML models and applications across on-premise, public cloud, and edge environments.

Red Hat continues to invest in Open Data Hub and refine the upstream technologies it continues to curate on Red Hat OpenShift, while building out experimentation and MLOps capabilities that feed into OpenShift Data Science. 

In this webinar, we’ll take you through how to get the most out of open source AI, introduce you to OpenShift Data Science, and provide a roadmap for planned future investments by Red Hat for AI on Red Hat OpenShift.

Our webinar topics include:

Open source AI: Best practice guidance on taking advantage of these technologies

IT automation is faster and easier to implement than ever before. In many cases, enterprises are seeing quicker time to value and return on investments in less than one year. IT automation drives efficiencies in Day 0, 1, and 2 of operations. IT teams looking to expand and mature their IT automation solutions must adopt what IDC calls 'smart automation.’ Smart automation utilizes key capabilities such as event-driven proactive processes to drive today's digital business with a high-performing, resilient infrastructure. In addition, smart automation enables FinOps teams to be more effective in controlling costs and forecasting cloud spending.
