Choice is important to Red Hat and Oracle customers. Today, we are extending our commitment to choice across the hybrid cloud. Previously, we certified Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and validated Red Hat OpenShift on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Compute virtual machines (VMs). Now, we’re building on this collaboration by validating Red Hat OpenShift on OCI Compute bare metal instances.

Why Red Hat OpenShift on OCI bare metal?

Red Hat OpenShift is the industry’s leading hybrid cloud application platform powered by Kubernetes. Bringing this platform to OCI bare metal instances provides more choices for customers who are seeking a customized, more powerful experience on multiple architectures, including Intel, AMD and Ampere.

Ampere-based Arm architecture support on OCI bare metal instances, along with Ampere-based VM support for RHEL and OpenShift, gives customers a range of options designed to meet specific cloud computing needs, such as taking advantage of performance improvements and cost savings. Red Hat OpenShift continues to fully support customers committed to x86 architectures, offered on both Intel and AMD processors.

Red Hat OpenShift on OCI bare metal instances includes integration with OCI Cloud Controller Manager and OCI Container Storage Interface. Both of these components are supported by Oracle for file system and raw block volumes, helping to simplify the experience of deploying OpenShift on OCI bare metal instances.

Continued collaboration for greater hybrid cloud innovation

Red Hat and Oracle share a substantial number of customers in the financial services, telecommunications, government and many other industries. We are committed to working together to support our mutual customers by certifying the latest versions of RHEL and validating new releases of OpenShift on OCI.

In addition, Red Hat and Oracle intend to bring Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization to OCI in the future, enabling organizations to reduce the friction between traditional VMs and cloud-native applications. OpenShift Virtualization provides a single platform to manage existing VM workloads alongside cloud applications and offers a path to modernizing IT operations while maintaining existing investments in virtualization infrastructure.

You can check out what is possible with Red Hat’s sessions on OpenShift VirtualizationOpenShift AI and how Palantir deploys Foundry and AIP using OpenShift and OCI Compute at Oracle CloudWorld 2024 in Las Vegas from September 9-12. While you’re there, visit Red Hat at booth #48 to learn even more about what you can gain with Red Hat OpenShift on OCI.

With Red Hat’s and Oracle’s 20+ years of collaboration around RHEL, our expanding relationship is aimed at supporting the dynamic needs of our global joint customer base. The power and scale of OCI combined with the flexibility and innovation of Red Hat’s hybrid cloud portfolio offers a more unified customer experience, backed by each company’s respective expertise. The combination of modern computing technologies shows our customers a streamlined, simpler path to hybrid cloud innovation.

What is a product trial? How is a Red Hat product trial different from a traditional licensed software trial?

Red Hat® product trials offer all the benefits included in a Red Hat subscription. But Red Hat product trials are more than just access to the latest code. They provide access to all versions of the software, to patches and other software updates, and to our award-winning Red Hat Customer Portal.

Who can sign up for a trial?

Anyone can request a product trial. However, some offers require a subscription to another product, administrator access, or other prerequisite in order to access the trial. Please see the specific requirements for your trial on the main offer page.

May I run production software with my product trial?

Product trials are not intended for production environments. Using product trials in a production environment is a violation of the product trial terms and conditions.

Do Red Hat product trials come with support? How do I know if my trial has support?

Some product trials offer a level of support while others are self-supported (unsupported). There are several ways to determine the support level of your product trial:

  • In the product trial name (e.g., 60 Day Self Supported Red Hat Directory Server Evaluation). You’ll find this in the welcome email you receive when your product trial begins.
  • On the Subscriptions page in Red Hat Customer Portal.
  • By contacting Sales or Customer Service.

Users with self-supported product trials have access to all product documentation as well as the vast Red Hat Knowledgebase.

How do I access my product trial?

Once your product trial subscription is active, you’ll have access to your product. It may be provided via a download of the latest version, or by accessing it via the cloud. You will find steps to access your product on the "success" page (the page that opens after you click "Start my trial" and is also accessible from the confirmation email you’ll receive).

How long does a product trial last?

Most product trials are 60 days, but exceptions may be made at the discretion of Red Hat Sales and Customer Service based on the user’s needs.

What technologies can I try through this program?

Nearly all Red Hat technologies are available for a product trial. You can find a listing of available trials in the Red Hat product trial center.  If there is a product you'd like to try that isn’t listed, please contact Red Hat Sales.

Why do I need to consult with a sales representative to obtain certain product trials?

There are several possible reasons:

  1. You’ve requested more than 1 product trial.
  2. You wish to extend your current product trial beyond the trial period.
  3. Your product trial is not available via the web.
  4. You’ve requested multiple product trials as part of a bundled SKU.
  5. Your product trial requires additional approvals before being activated.

Contact Red Hat Sales to try these technologies.

I’d like to use the product trial software after my trial has expired, or I’d like to use the software in a production environment. What are my options?

  • Purchase a subscription.
  • Renew the product trial.
  • Contact Red Hat Sales to determine if a similar product trial is available.
