OpenShift Enterprise 3.1 delivers new Red Hat JBoss Middleware services, advanced management functionality provided by Red Hat CloudForms and enhanced application lifecycle management for containers implemented on OpenShift’s enterprise-grade container infrastructure. Additionally, updates to integrated Docker and Kubernetes capabilities augment the developer and platform administrator experience.
Available as a public preview, Red Hat Atomic Enterprise Platform includes a runtime and packaging format powered by Docker, orchestration and cluster services built on Kubernetes and new networking and storage plug-ins for scalable, multi-host container networking. As enterprises expand the footprint of their container infrastructure, registry services in Red Hat Atomic Enterprise Platform allow for more secure repository and management for sharing and reusing container images.
The company recognises that technological innovation in containers is not enough, citing an April 2015 study by Forrester Consulting, commissioned by Red Hat, that notes that 53% of the 194 global IT operations, application development and architecture professionals polled call out security as one of the top three current challenges experienced by their organisations in their use of containers.
Red Hat is working to improve Linux container security through various initiatives. OpenShift Enterprise 3.1 and Red Hat Atomic Enterprise Platform both include several hardened security features that leverage Red Hat’s certified container ecosystem. Additionally, the company recently announced a collaboration with Black Duck around more secure containers.
