A recently launched partnership between Red Hat and Nutanix will help enterprises build, scale and manage cloud native applications on-premises and in hybrid cloud environments. The pairing brings Red Hat OpenShift and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) together with the Nutanix Cloud Platform, including Nutanix AOS hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) and AHV virtualization manager.

The partnership means that Nutanix AHV is now a Red Hat certified hypervisor with support for RHEL and OpenShift on Nutanix Cloud Platform, said Greg Muscarella, vice president of product at Nutanix. Indeed, the certification of the Nutanix built-in hypervisor, AHV, for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and OpenShift provides enterprises with a simplified full-stack platform for their containerized and virtualized cloud native applications, said Ron Pacheco, director of product management at Red Hat.

Both companies said the partnership came out of customer demand to bring the Nutanix and Red Hat technologies together and to provide support for them.
