A conversation with IDC: How enterprise Linux can support hybrid cloud environments
Cloud-based infrastructure investments are a priority for organizations as they shift toward open hybrid and multicloud deployments. “Hybrid” means organizations can implement cloud with one foot in the datacenter, while “open” allows for portability across on- and off-premise environments and providers. When done right, these open environments provide the ability for uninterrupted integration of services and interoperability, allowing for greater agility and speed of deployment. They can also unlock access to optimal services and applications, along with options specifically designed to meet industry requirements. Join IDC and Red Hat to discover how enterprise Linux® can serve as the back bone for your hybrid cloud environments.
