The Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) is a secure, stable, and supported operating system (OS). The RHEL ecosystem makes it easy to build and customize applications and integrate with other enterprise tools.
- RHEL's certified support for various hardware vendors and cloud providers ensures you can deploy your applications on a wide range of infrastructures, from bare metal to hybrid environments, including public clouds such as AWS, GCP and Microsoft Azure.
- Red Hat's Universal Base Image (UBI) enables faster and more efficient deployment of containerized applications, as well as improved security and compatibility across different environments.
- Management capabilities such as the web console, application streams, system roles, and image builder give the user control over system management and streamline development.
- Red Hat Insights provides analytical capabilities that can help identify and troubleshoot issues, giving you a significant advantage as a developer.
Trust RHEL to provide a solid foundation for building and deploying your applications in hybrid cloud environments.
Features
Security and compliance
Make security and compliance a part of your infrastructure and application product lifecycle from the beginning. RHEL's multi-layer breach defense includes automated and repeatable security controls such as SELinux and application listing. Live kernel patches and remediation are included to help you deploy new software quickly on an OS you can trust. Built-in RHEL utilities also use OpenSSL 3, so you can take advantage of new security ciphers to encrypt and protect your information.
Automation and management
Spend more time on innovation and less on repetitive tasks. Red Hat Enterprise Linux provides a consistent, stable experience for automating and streamlining workload deployment. Access repeatable workflows through tools such as image builder, system roles, and the RHEL web console. Automation and management capabilities make it easier to standardize deployment at scale and simplify day-to-day system administration.
Performance
Red Hat Enterprise Linux provides best-of-class performance for your applications across the open hybrid cloud. Identify, analyze, and tune your workload performance as you build applications. Tune your system for a variety of workload profiles with built-in TuneD profiles. Kernel backports let you access upstream Linux performance improvements while ensuring application compatibility and stability in your existing Linux kernel.
Container development tools
Red Hat Enterprise Linux delivers integrated container development, runtime tools, and secure base images to provide a consistent yet flexible host to power container adoption anywhere you choose to deploy images.
Cloud access
Conquer complexity no matter where or how you choose to deploy – on-premises, in the cloud, containerized, and all the way out to the edge. The Red Hat Cloud Access program lets you use your developer subscription on Red Hat-certified public clouds.
Edge
Red Hat Enterprise Linux's new edge management helps organizations securely manage and scale deployments at the edge. The benefits of zero-touch provisioning, system health visibility, and quick security remediations are available from a single interface. These capabilities give you control and peace of mind at every stage of an edge system's life.
