Red Hat X Podcast Series

NGINX is not only the most widely web server on the internet, but it’s also the most
commonly used data plane for Ingress controllers. In this episode we’ll discuss how NGINX’s microservices technologies – which include an Ingress controller, WAF, and service  mesh – add value to OpenShift deployments by giving developers and platform ops teams control of the application data plane.

Kubernetes delivers the greatest flexibility and agility of any infrastructure, but with it comes a level of complexity that makes it impossible to manage manually at scale. Andrew Hillier, co-founder and CTO of Densify, will discuss the latest thinking around capacity operation and how to best handle capacity management for these environments.

Innovation is the goal of every organization today.  Whether it is for growth, gaining competitive advantage or just improving the way they do business, it always points back to innovation.  The challenge many organizations face when trying to innovate is integration to the siloed legacy systems which are difficult to interact with and certainly not designed to interface with modern systems.  So, many customers we speak with have a wealth of Information locked into their legacy mainframe systems, with no easy way to access it, nor any easy way to adapt to changes quickly once they do.  ​In this tech talk we will explore the challenges to innovation when legacy systems are involved, what we have learned from our customers, and some real live case studies highlighting successful innovation stories involving legacy systems.  We will also discuss how these innovations play into the Red Hat OpenShift framework.

Adaptigent delivers future-proof solutions that turn yesterday’s legacy systems into tomorrow’s leading-edge applications, in a fraction of the time and cost that system modernization usually requires.  With over 30 years’ of industry experience, they have helped over 2,500 organizations across the globe improve their operational efficiency and customer experience.  Adaptigent has served an impressive roster of large companies across a variety of industries including banking, insurance, transportation, logistics, and manufacturing, facing many challenges along the way.  In this podcast, you’ll hear from Adaptigent’s Lead Solution Engineer, Dusty Rivers, on the fascinating details behind some of their most interesting and compelling customer stories. 

GT Software is now Adaptigent™ but the change is more than just skin-deep.  Adaptigent empowers organizations to unlock the potential of their core systems to enable enterprise-level innovation. Their application, led by the Adaptive Integration Fabric, help IT organizations provide real-time, business-ready results by creating a dynamic, no-code layer that allows modern applications to access the full treasure trove of data trapped on legacy systems. With  decades of digital transformation expertise, it is trusted by many of the world’s largest companies to accelerate their digital transformation efforts.  In this 3 part partner spotlight podcast, learn about Adaptigent’s history, offerings, and the market trends driving the recent rebranding.

Over the past few decades, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) has grown – both in use cases it enables and the overall footprint within our digital lives. As a result, certificates are everywhere. What has been used to secure websites, networks, and VPNs, has evolved to meet the demands of newer use cases like IoT and containerization. It‘s these new use cases that are driving increased adoption. But they’re also adding to the complexity and increased demand on security environments. In the world of DevOps, automation is a survival strategy, and security is a necessity, creating the need for a secure automation platform as a part of the software developer’s tool set. This is where Entrust CA Gateway Ansible Module can help: not just by issuing strong identities but also having the ability to manage them and renew them in an automated way.
In this podcast, learn about the Ansible playbooks that can help you implement certificate-based security within your DevOps automation journey and how it makes security seamless for developers supporting the fast-paced DevOps environments, so you don’t have to build the security pieces yourself.

For more than 50 years, organizations around the world have trusted Entrust to help protect
their sensitive data and applications. On this episode, Peter Galvin, Chief Strategy & Marketing Officer of Digital Security Solutions at Entrust, discusses the company’s evolution from its early days focused on physical security to its presence today as a global security leader. Peter will also talk about how the 10+ year relationship between Entrust and Red Hat continues to strengthen and evolve as both companies strive to enable their customers’ hybrid cloud strategies.

The current state of applications is growing increasingly complex with distributed microservices, multi cloud networks, and rapid development and deployment practices. This makes troubleshooting and securing those applications much more difficult. However, there is a solution and that is data! Traditional troubleshooting and security relied on collecting signals in production environments, however collecting data from the development lifecycle and the tools relied upon to deliver code to the cloud will help catch potential attack vectors earlier and reduce the effort to resolve them. 

Kubernetes adoption and use is gaining traction for all types of services and applications, but for many the database still runs off to one side. In fact, a recent survey conducted by Cockroach Labs and Red Hat shows that 94% of organizations are using Kubernetes in production today -- and that the number one priority they named is architecting for data-intensive workloads.
Please join us for this insightful session, where we will help you gauge your maturity against some of your peers and help identify the trends and approaches organizations are facing with K8s and how to use it for transactional, data intensive workloads.

Security monitoring is central to the identification and remediation of cyberattacks. Data breaches are inevitable and shrinking the window from detection to action is mission critical. Deploying the proper tools to combat these growing threats is fundamental to any data security strategy. Prevention, detection and remediation take many forms. The mixture of the three depends on the location, environment and level of complexity involved. Regulatory compliance across multiple countries and governmental agencies further complicates an enterprise protection strategy. Join us as we discuss what essential build blocks are necessary for deploying a comprehensive cybersecurity monitoring and remediation solution.
