Yunsup Lee holding RISC V prototype chip. At UC Berkeley Par Lab Winter Retreat, January 2013. It's an exciting time to be involved in open source. Linux powers the world's most critical devices, a story to which Red Hat has always been a champion. Today...
Recently, the sustainable-computing.io project, Kepler, was added as a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) sandbox project. While deploying a tool dedicated to sustainability, the last thing we'd want is for the tool itself to consume unnecessary energy or...
Engineers and researchers from the Red Hat Research and Emerging Technologies groups will feature recent work and a glimpse of where open source technology will go next at the upcoming Red Hat Summit, May 23-25. Interactive sessions, hands-on labs, and demos include...
WebAssembly (WASM) was designed as a binary instruction set that natively-compiled languages like C/C++ and Rust could use as a compilation target to be executed in a web browser. However, running WASM natively on the host outside the browser has unique...
If you missed the Red Hat NEXT! event back in September, or if you just want to refresh your memory on some of the amazing content that was presented there, here's a complete listing of all of the talks. Follow the links to see the recordings on the Red Hat Community...
In recent years, “edge devices” have evolved from simple IoT sensors to autonomous drones driven by powerful artificial intelligence (AI) software. Similarly, the processes to develop and deploy AI software to “the edge” have also seen a rapid evolution. Today, data...
Are you a CTO, CISO, CDO, or thought leader responsible for open source strategy for your company? If so, don’t miss out on Red Hat NEXT! This is Red Hat’s annual event for deep dives on all things Emerging Technologies, coming up on September 15th. This year’s...
Exploring a small form factor OpenShift designed for field deployed edge computing devices Edge Computing spans a broad range of use cases and deployment models. On one end, it can refer to micro data centers located in controlled environments that are formed by a...
The Red Hat NEXT! conference is Red Hat’s annual event for deep dives on all things Emerging Technologies. Featuring a keynote from our CTO, Chris Wright, and breakout sessions on edge computing, cloud services, and security, this conference covers all of the most...
Akraino is a popular project hosted by the LF Edge Foundation, thanks to its potential to create new and improved ways for industrial and enterprise-level businesses to maximize operational efficiency and improve performance and safety. In February 2021, the Akraino...
Red Hat Next! Online Edition will be held on February 25th, 2021, from 10:00am US Central time to 12:30 US Central time, Registration is open. William Gibson wrote “the future is already here—it’s just not evenly distributed yet.” For software companies like Red Hat,...
As part of a modern IT environment, Linux distributions can look to optimizing their size to be better suited for container use. One of the ways this improvement can happen is through reducing the size of a distribution, a process known as minimization. A new tool is...
Teams from Red Hat and NVIDIA have collaborated on creating a scalable hybrid cloud application that could revolutionize smart city initiatives such as traffic-flow monitoring and transportation management around the world. By working together, the two companies are...
Unikernels are customized, single address space bootable images composed of an application and the required bare-minimum kernel functionality. Today’s unikernels have demonstrated substantial performance and security advantages over monolithic and microkernels, but...
In the previous blog, my colleague David Bericat discussed why Internet of Things (IoT) architecture should be built with open source. One of the core components of end-to-end IoT architecture listed in that article was an intelligent IoT gateway that can process data...
Designing, implementing, securely operating, managing and maintaining IoT projects is complex. In fact, there are entire organizations whose sole mission is solving a specific problem within an IoT architecture. The problems that can be found within such architectures...
Computing styles ebb and flow. The centralized mainframe in the glass room largely ebbed in favor of the PC revolution that itself gave way, at least in part, to the web and the cloud. Today, we have a complex mix of massive datacenters, Internet-of-Things (IoT)...
