Red Hat

RHEL and OpenShift — Open Source Solutions with Commercial Support

Over the past several years, we have consulted, delivered, and implemented dozens of Red Hat Enterprise Linux and OpenShift solutions. We help build a secure and scalable open-source foundation for your IT environment, specializing in two complementary products:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

Red Hat OpenShift

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

— The Leading Commercial Linux Platform

We provide full-cycle RHEL implementation and consolidation, based on Red Hat best practices and compliance requirements. Our technical team holds multiple Red Hat certifications and continuously strengthens its expertise through hands-on customer projects.

RHEL delivers a stable, secure, and predictable foundation for both traditional VM-based systems and modern containerized environments.

What does the service include?

Analysis of the current environment and requirements

We assess existing systems and collect performance, security, compliance, and integration needs.

Architecture and standards

We define version and channel policies, update and patch management, identity tools, and registries.

Deployment and integration

Installation of RHEL, deployment of Red Hat Satellite, and full integration.

Migration and optimization

Migration from other Linux/UNIX systems, resource usage analysis, and performance improvements.

Documentation, training, and support

Training of customer teams, review of operational procedures, and long-term maintenance assistance.

Core RHEL components

SELinux

and security profiles (CIS/SCAP) with policies and auditing

Red Hat Satellite

for system and patch management, monitoring, and provisioning

Red Hat Insights

for proactive risk detection and improvement recommendations

Why choose RHEL?

Reliability and lifecycle

10 years of support per version, compatibility, and reduced operational risk.

Security and compliance

SELinux, cryptography, auditability, and ready-to-use compliance guidelines.

Efficient management

Satellite, Insights, and Ansible reduce daily operational workload for IT teams.

Red Hat OpenShift

— A Kubernetes Application Platform

We implement and manage OpenShift, providing a consistent and commercially supported platform for microservices applications, APIs, data processing, and AI/ML workloads.

OpenShift extends standard Kubernetes with Red Hat security enhancements, supported operators, and built-in platform services.

What does the service include?

Assessment and target architecture

Capacity planning, security constraints, network model definition, and cluster architecture design.

Deployment and integration

Cluster installation, identity integration (LDAP), network and registry configuration.

Platform services

Deployment of OpenShift GitOps & Pipelines, Service Mesh, Quay Registry, OpenShift Data Foundation as needed.

Documentation, training, and support

Training, operational procedure review, and long-term support.

Key OpenShift elements

Kubernetes + Operators

with RBAC, Red Hat support, and lifecycle management

GitOps/CI-CD

using Argo CD and Tekton for declarative delivery pipelines

Service Mesh

for traffic management and observability

Quay Registry

as an integrated container registry

OpenShift Data Foundation

software-defined storage for Kubernetes (block/object/file)

Why choose OpenShift?

Faster delivery

Operators, GitOps, and CI/CD accelerate development and deployment

Integrated security

Built-in RBAC, security policies, and application scanning

Enterprise support and lifecycle

Professional vendor support and predictable long-term platform lifecycle

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

What is the difference between RHEL and OpenShift?

RHEL is a stable and secure Linux foundation for servers, VMs, and containers. OpenShift is a Kubernetes application platform for containerized workloads and DevOps processes. RHEL provides the OS layer (security, lifecycle, management), while OpenShift provides container orchestration and platform services (Operators, GitOps/CI/CD, Service Mesh, etc.).

Do we need both RHEL and OpenShift?

Not always. If you need a stable Linux environment and centralized management, RHEL is sufficient. If you need a container platform for microservices, OpenShift is required. Often they work together: RHEL as the secure infrastructure base, OpenShift as the application platform.

Why choose commercially supported Linux (RHEL) instead of free Linux?

RHEL provides a predictable lifecycle, security updates, and vendor support, reducing downtime and risk. Its enterprise ecosystem includes certified solutions, compliance tools (SELinux, audits), and management platforms (Satellite, Insights).

What does “10 years of support” mean for RHEL?

It ensures a stable long-term platform with security fixes and predictable update policies. This helps organizations avoid frequent migrations and maintain compatibility for critical systems.

How do you ensure security and compliance with RHEL?

We implement security policies and auditing practices based on Red Hat standards and compliance frameworks. This includes SELinux configuration, CIS/SCAP profiles, patch processes, audits, and documented operational procedures.

What is Red Hat Satellite and why is it important?

Satellite enables centralized server and patch management in a secure and transparent way. It supports system registration, repository management, automated provisioning, and standardization at scale.

What is Red Hat Insights?

A proactive tool for risk detection and recommendations to improve security and stability. Insights helps identify vulnerabilities, configuration risks, and compliance gaps before they become incidents.

Do you migrate systems from other Linux/UNIX platforms to RHEL?

Yes. We migrate and optimize systems while ensuring business continuity. Migration includes environment assessment, compatibility checks, planning, testing, cutover, and post-migration optimization.

What is OpenShift and why not use “just Kubernetes”?

OpenShift is Kubernetes with enterprise security, supported operators, built-in platform services, and vendor support. It adds lifecycle management, RBAC and security policy frameworks, integrated GitOps/CI/CD tools, and reduced production risk.

Where can OpenShift be deployed — on-prem, cloud, hybrid?

Yes. OpenShift can run on-premises, in public cloud, or in hybrid environments. We help design the right architecture and network model (security, identity, registries, observability) to ensure consistency across environments.
