Red Hat Program Certifies Partners to Put Linux on Cloud
Red Hat has launched a new partner program to make sure its enterprise Linux and JBoss software are core components of a cloud-computing infrastructure, and to guarantee that Red Hat-based applications will run reliably and safely in the cloud.
The new Premier Cloud Provider Certification and Partner Program unveiled this week certifies cloud-computing providers to offer applications and infrastructure based on Red Hat software, including Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and JBoss Java middleware, according to Red Hat.
Amazon Web Services, which already has a technology partnership to run RHEL as part of its Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) offering, has signed on to become the first Red Hat Premier Cloud Provider Partner.
