Red Hat Unveils Enterprise Linux to Empower Business Developers in Streamlining Application Development

Red Hat has unveiled the Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Business Developers, a new offering aimed at simplifying access to the enterprise Linux platform specifically designed for business application development and testing. This self-service initiative, part of the Red Hat Developer Program, allows development teams to build, test, and iterate applications more efficiently, all while using the same platform that supports production systems across hybrid cloud environments—offered at no cost.

As the complexity of IT environments escalates, with applications spread across physical, virtual, cloud, and edge infrastructures, organizations face increasing challenges related to AI, cloud-native, and virtualization workloads. Additionally, the rise in cybersecurity threats, particularly software vulnerabilities and supply chain attacks, heightens the need for a dependable, hardened platform. The Red Hat Product Security Risk Report highlights this pressing issue, advocating for a consistent solution across both production environments and developer workstations.

The Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Business Developers aims to tackle these challenges by giving developers no-cost access to a comprehensive set of enterprise-ready content. This access ensures greater consistency and reliability across developer and operations teams, no matter where the application resides on the hybrid cloud.

Key features include:

• Self-service access to the enterprise Linux platform, allowing entitlement of up to 25 physical, virtual, or cloud-based instances for each registered user, helping to bridge the gap with operations teams by facilitating development on a unified platform.
• Curated developer content, including access to various open source programming languages, tools, and databases crucial for crafting cutting-edge enterprise applications.
• Advanced open source container tooling through Podman Desktop, ensuring developers can utilize Red Hat software components for development and testing, including creating bootable container images.

Gunnar Hellekson, Vice President and General Manager at Red Hat Enterprise Linux, emphasized the necessity for developers to operate at their own pace while innovating effectively. The new offering empowers them with direct access to a robust enterprise Linux platform without the constraints of centralized IT channels, offering a reliable foundation that aligns perfectly with production demands.
