Customer Stories And Continued Momentum: OpenShift Virtualization Sessions At Red Hat Summit 2026
Red Hat, Friday, April 24th, 2026
Disruption in the virtualization market has not slowed down. The fallout from industry licensing and packaging changes continues to push organizations into decisions they were not planning to make this year, and for many, the timelines are getting shorter, not longer.
Over the past 12 months, we have worked with hundreds of organizations navigating exactly this situation, and at Red Hat Summit 2026 (May 11-14, Atlanta), many of them will share what they have learned.
The early conversations were almost entirely about migration: how to move virtual machines (VMs) safely, how to avoid downtime, and how to get off the renewal clock. As time has gone by, those topics have come up more frequently and with greater urgency. Organizations are now going further, asking what they'll land on after migration, not just what they leave behind.
