Red Hat

Red Hat is one of the world's leading providers of open source IT solutions for companies in the areas of automation, cloud solutions, container/Kubernetes, Linux OS, management, middleware and virtualization. For over 25 years, Red Hat has been working in open source community projects to solve problems and develop new innovative technologies. Red Hat optimizes these developments in an enterprise-ready manner to provide customers with enterprise service and support.

SVA has the highest status as a Red Hat Premium Partner and has also been a Red Hat Certified Cloud & Service Provider (CCSP) since 2020. In recent years, SVA has invested in expertise and training, particularly in new Red Hat technologies such as OpenShift container services, the open source automation tool Ansible (Ansible Automation Platform) and Red Hat Device Edge. SVA has also developed workshops and solutions in this environment.

With over 80 Openshift, over 60 Ansible and over 110 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (incl. virtualization) consultants, SVA is one of Germany's leading system houses and maintains a very close partnership with Red Hat. Due to the large number of projects in the application environment, the existing portfolio is currently being further expanded and rounded off with middleware solutions based on JBOSS and the cloud-native Java development Quarkus.

The intensive partnership between SVA and Red Hat enables optimal consulting in this environment. With a complementary range of training courses and workshops, we enable your journey to IT standardization, in which we accompany you with our other services of consulting, implementation and operational support in the subsequent Red Hat solutions:

Red Hat Products

Red Hat OpenShift

Red Hat OpenShift is much more than a simple Kubernetes distribution; it is a comprehensive development and deployment platform. OpenShift's outstanding features include its user-friendly interface for developers and administrators and the numerous extensions available via the Red Hat Marketplace.

Particularly noteworthy extensions for OpenShift include:

OpenShift AI
Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes (ACM)
Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security for Kubernetes (ACS)
OpenShift DevSpaces

Red Hat Ansible

Red Hat Ansible facilitates IT automation and standardization by separating definition and implementation. It is suitable for various domains such as infrastructure, operating systems, cloud and more. The Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform enables collaborative IT automation. SVA offers comprehensive consulting, training and workshops for the introduction and implementation of Ansible in simple to complex environments.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

RHEL is a professional Linux distribution that is geared towards the requirements of IT customers and is known for its high stability and widespread use. RHEL offers comprehensive SELinux support, live kernel patching and various tools for analyzing and optimizing systems, which also makes it suitable for critical and sensitive information.

Red Hat Satellite

Red Hat Satellite is a lifecycle management tool that makes it possible to create, configure and inventory Red Hat infrastructures, regardless of physical or virtual servers. It also provides efficient and controlled deployment of software packages and updates, including versioning, controlled release and vulnerability scanning.

Application Development

With its technologies, Red Hat also offers a stable basis for the development of modern applications. Two fundamental solutions in the portfolio are the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) and Quarkus. Both solutions address different needs and complement each other perfectly to enable comprehensive and future-proof application development. JBoss EAP is a leading solution for the development, deployment and management of mission-critical Jakarta EE applications. While JBoss EAP is the foundation for monolithic applications, Quarkus is the answer to the requirements of cloud-native development. Quarkus is a Kubernetes-native Java framework designed specifically for the creation of microservices and serverless applications:

JBoss EAP: Reliability for enterprise applications

Enterprise-grade security: Comprehensive security features to protect sensitive data and meet compliance requirements.
Scalability and performance: Optimized for heavy workloads and easy scalability.
Integrated management tools: User-friendly tools for management and monitoring.

Quarkus: The future of cloud-native Java development

Optimized architecture: Lightning-fast startup times and low memory consumption, which reduces operating costs and optimizes resource usage, ideal for serverless environments
Seamless Kubernetes integration: Facilitates the development, deployment and management of container applications
Developer Experience: Features such as Live Coding and Continuous Testing improve productivity.
