Red Hat is collaborating with Nutanix to make OpenShift and Red Hat Enterprise Linux a fully supported solution on the Nutanix native virtualization platform, AHV.
The new agreement provides for Red Hat OpenShift, its Kubernetes distribution, to be the Nutanix “preferred choice” for Kubernetes on Nutanix, and for Nutanix HCI to be fully supported by Red Hat for deploying Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and OpenShift. The Nutanix Acropolis Hypervisor (AHV) will now be certified by Red Hat for RHEL and OpenShift.
“Nutanix supports several different hypervisors,” Red Hat’s Ronald Pacheco, director of product management, told us, “They support AHV, VMware ESXi, Hyper-V and they also support Citrix XenServer. We’re aware of customers who have been using Nutanix, mostly using ESXi… because Red Hat customers tend to be conservative and they want to make sure they’re using a supported hypervisor, but at the same time saying, I’m paying a lot extra… so we have customers saying, help us out of this pickle here, can you possibly just support RHEL running on top of AHV?”
