EXPAND YOUR POSSIBILITIES

Red Hat Forum 2019 Riyadh

November 6, 2019Saudi Arabia, RiyadhCrowne Plaza Riyadh RDC Hotel & Convention

What's next?

Join us online for the MENA breakout sessions during Red Hat Forum EMEA 2020 on November 3.

Overview

Whether you’ve been in IT for decades or you’re just starting out, you know you’re in an industry that doesn’t stand still. And neither can you—every pull request accepted, every project finished, every strategy executed is an opportunity to add to your experience and expand your possibilities.
What you do with those opportunities, however, depends on a simple little word and how you treat it: AND. Because from the right foundation, from an open foundation, AND connects technology with culture and expands your possibilities. It adapts and grows with you from the start—it’s interoperable, adjustable, elastic, scaling up with you when you need it or down when you don’t. Think Linux AND containers. Think public AND private cloud. Think Red Hat AND you.
AND is the essential building block of open source, and Red Hat Forum is where AND comes to life, where ideas worth exploring become reality. It’s a place to learn, network, and experience open source. It’s the connection of inspiration and action, to build on what you have, build toward what you want, and build up your expectations of possibilities to come.
