Red Hat's Hybrid Cloud AI Strategies Expand Through AWS Collaboration
eWeek, Tuesday, December 17th, 2024
Open source software provider Red Hat this week announced that it is extending its long partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to significantly scale the availability of Red Hat open source systems in AWS Marketplace.
Red Hat said its hybrid cloud platforms, including Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI (RHEL AI), Red Hat OpenShift AI, and Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization will be on AWS infrastructure, aiming to address organizations' application modernization, virtual machine migration and AI deployment needs.
Strengthening AI Across the Hybrid Cloud
As part of this collaboration, Red Hat is enhancing the availability of software such as RHEL AI and Red Hat OpenShift AI in AWS Marketplace, including 'bring your own subscription' (BYOS) and private offers. The vendor said it will support AI accelerators and GPUs from chip providers such as AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA. Red Hat said its goal is to help provide organizations with ready-made AI capabilities that can be scaled more easily with Red Hat OpenShift AI on AWS, either self-managed or through the services' built-in capabilities.
