Why it matters

Open-source infrastructure delivers cost control and vendor flexibility, but adoption requires operational maturity and technical depth. Red Hat provides enterprise-grade open-source solutions that bring reliability, security and support to Linux environments, Kubernetes orchestration and hybrid cloud deployments.

SCC and Red Hat have partnered for over 15 years, helping organisations move from legacy infrastructure through containerisation and hybrid cloud architectures powered by Red Hat.

Rather than treating open-source adoption as a tooling project, SCC aligns Red Hat solutions with your application modernisation roadmap, your skill development needs and your timeline for shifting from virtual machine to container-based deployments. The result is a pragmatic path to hybrid cloud that reduces operational risk and creates the foundation for faster application delivery.

Why choose SCC

15+ years of Red Hat delivery experience

SCC has Premier Partner status and has partnered with Red Hat for over 15 years. That depth of relationship matters for production Linux, Kubernetes and hybrid cloud projects where operational continuity and vendor escalation rights are essential.

Application Modernisation Leadership

Container adoption and Kubernetes deployment require more than open-source software. SCC helps plan and execute application migration from traditional virtual machines through containerised workloads, using Red Hat Enterprise Linux and OpenShift as the foundation for measurable delivery acceleration.

Hybrid Cloud Readiness

Your infrastructure spans datacentres, private clouds and public cloud providers. Red Hat solutions provide a consistent platform across those environments. SCC helps you design hybrid cloud architecture that balances workload placement, cost, compliance and operational consistency.

Linux & Automation Expertise

Production Linux requires operational skill. SCC brings Red Hat expertise in security hardening, automation framework design (Ansible) and operational monitoring that transforms open-source solutions from experimental technology into production infrastructure.

FAQs

Why invest in Red Hat if open-source is free?

Open-source software is free. But operating it in production requires expertise, security patching, vendor support and operational integration. Red Hat Enterprise Linux provides certified builds, security updates and support that reduce operational risk compared to community editions.

How does SCC approach application modernisation with Red Hat?

We map your current infrastructure, identify applications that are candidates for containerisation, then design a phased approach that moves workloads from virtual machines to containers while maintaining service continuity and building team capability.

What is the difference between Red Hat and Kubernetes?

Kubernetes is open-source container orchestration. Red Hat provides enterprise Kubernetes (OpenShift) bundled with networking, storage, security and support. SCC uses Red Hat platforms to implement Kubernetes workloads with operational reliability and governance controls that matter in production.

How long does application containerisation take?

It depends on your application portfolio and operational readiness. Simple stateless applications move quickly. Stateful applications, legacy monoliths and custom integrations need more time. SCC helps prioritise applications based on difficulty and business value, phasing migration to fit your timeline and budget.

How does Red Hat help with cloud cost control?

Hybrid cloud can reduce cloud spend through workload placement optimisation and elimination of redundant infrastructure. Red Hat’s consistent platform across on-premises and cloud environments makes that optimisation possible.
