IN THE NEWS:

ZDNet - Red Hat offers free Red Hat Enterprise Linux to developers

Red Hat is offering a no-cost RHEL [Red Hat Enterprise Linux] subscription, as part of its Red Hat Developer Program. This is as a self-supported, non-production developer subscription. The RHEL Developer Suite provides programmers with a stable development platform for building enterprise-ready applications... A Red Hat spokesperson told ZDNet, "This is a first for Red Hat, and is a similar approach to what we did with our Middleware portfolio in 2014. This makes it available to developers at no cost. What we've effectively done is given developers an enterprise-ready stack from the start—using RHEL + JBoss from the get-go, this should help accelerate next-generation application development and speed up the delivery of these applications."
