With this strategic collaboration, certified configurations of OCI flexible virtual machines can now run Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and customers can also migrate existing workloads already running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux to Red Hat Enterprise Linux on OCI.
“Customers can easily plan to migrate existing workloads which are currently on Red Hat Enterprise Linux to OCI without many changes in the stack. We foresee our Indian customers not only enjoying the benefits of both but also creating standardized processes, reducing overall costs and also attaining better reliability. This collaboration will allow companies to accelerate their digital transformation efforts in a much smoother way,” said P Saravanan, Vice President, Cloud Engineering, Oracle India.
Ninety percent of the Fortune 500 currently rely on solutions from Red Hat and Oracle. These organizations will be able to standardize their cloud operations with Red Hat Enterprise Linux running on OCI, which enables customers to gain a common platform that goes from their datacenter to the OCI distributed cloud.
Andrew Habgood, vice president, Partner Ecosystem, APAC, Red Hat said that customer support would be provided by both enterprises under a joint support agreement.
“We’ve had separate propositions out there for many years, but many of our customers depend on us together. And the ability to have Red Hat Enterprise Linux available on the Oracle Cloud has been desperately in demand from our customers and so it’s an exciting time to make this happen and to begin that partnership,” said Habgood.
