Presentations

Running applications in containers can be tricky. Red Hat OpenShift 4.0 empowers developers to innovate by simplifying and automating the cloud. It’s the next generation of Red Hat’s trusted enterprise Kubernetes platform, reengineered to address the complexity of managing container-based applications in production systems. It’s designed as a self-managing platform with automatic software updates and lifecycle management across hybrid cloud environments.  

What you can expect to learn at the Business track: 

  • How OpenShift 4 is engineered to address the complexity of containers
  • The true business value of OpenShift
  • The lessons learnt by customers
  • Network with peers currently on their OpenShift journey
What you can expect to learn at the Technical track event:
  • Create applications in containers using Kubernetes native development
  • Work in multiple development languages and frameworks to create new cloud native applications
  • Transform and optimize traditional applications
  • Utilize serverless applications, integration and workflows
  • Bring security and monitoring to your applications

Red Hat OpenShift helps teams build with speed, agility, confidence, and choice, letting developers focus on coding rather than dealing with Kubernetes operations.
