Everybody has their head in the clouds these days but what's new with Red Hat and HP that's going to be useful to me?

 

There are a number of reasons why HP and Red Hat are such a strong combination.

 

Is the paint on that park bench wet?

 

Imagine that new features are like newly painted park benches....

 

HP together with Red Hat makes sure the paint is dry before you sit down!  

 

It's a strong combination!

 

Think about some of the experiences where someone sold you something before the “paint was dry”.

HP and Red Hat really do put in plenty of thorough validation to make sure the new features you need are ready to go! And there's plenty of soak time to new features to do all the initial shake out so you don't have to. All the vendors have lots of new hardware features coming out, and HP works to make you successful for the long run, not in the run to get to the starting line.

 

What's the magic in the middle of the cookie?

 

Some sell you their standard cookies. HP with Red Hat gives you more than just standard cookies. Of course, you can choose standard cookies, aka standard systems, or, even better you can get double stuffed! That includes different hardware choices on the motherboard or as plug ins and they are all validated and certified.

The magic in the middle is that you get a wide breadth of choices to suit your needs. And any of these choices have been vetted through the usual process so you can count on it. The end-to-end server environment has been shaken out to make it solid!

 

When things go wrong as they sometimes will....

 

Between the underlying hardware platform, the OS and the apps stack there is plenty of opportunity to find something unexpected. These things are complicated for everyone!  But, HP proactively searches support activities to continually identify and improve the customer experience by having engineering checking out what's going on in support and improving the experience.

 

Cloudy Today but Red Hat is shining through!

 

HP is working with Red Hat to make it easier to get what you need to set up for a cloud environment.

And we've got some interesting reading to highlight more of what's in it for you!

 

And why HP and Red Hat are a compelling choice!

 

Have a great Summit!
