Redhat

Supporting customers with core-critical cloud infrastructures

Together, we’re able to migrate our customers onto Red Hat Enterprise Linux, which is fully certified on hundreds of clouds and with thousands of hardware and software vendors

This consistent, flexible, open-source operating system enables faster data delivery, and is instrumental in driving new innovations for the workloads of our customers. Through one centralised interface, customers can efficiently manage edge systems and connect all data and devices through their hybrid cloud infrastructures.

SCC’s expertise is helping to refresh, renew, maintain and grow Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and for our customers, it means they can run all of their mission-critical, heavy duty workloads across every application and platform.

Accelerating automation for fast, cost-effective service delivery

Expanding volumes of data and applications require increased resources to manage. With human IT skills still in very short supply, this can be extremely expensive to achieve, and so the most cost-effective and practical answer is automation.

Red Hat’s Ansible solution provides that all-important automation to our customers, by way of open-source tooling available on a subscription basis. As well as the use of enterprise-grade technology for automation and orchestration, SCC and Red Hat can collectively deliver all the support services needed to keep things running smoothly. This helps our customers reduce costs, relieve the admin burden on the in-house IT team, and improve service delivery for downstream customers.
