Red Hat was the first supported operating system and JBoss the first supported middleware on AWS. Anyway, Red Hat has thought up this shiny new program to certify “industry leaders in cloud computing” on Red Hat solutions. Premier Cloud Provider Partners are supposed to collaborate with Red Hat on technical support, security updates, hardware certification, sales and marketing, and business models.
Red Hat says customer interest in cloud computing, both in building virtualized internal infrastructure systems and extending their applications to the cloud, is increasing and that they’re asking to transfer and use Red Hat subscriptions on premise and/or in cloud environments.
