By opting for an OpenStack-based solution, organisations can run new cloud-scale workloads while also optimising costs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPrimeflex for Red Hat OpenStack extends the philosophy of cost optimisation, through simplifying system maintenance and consolidating technology updates across the entire system stack, all the way from the underlying hardware through to the operating system,\u201d Bernreuther said.<\/p>\n<p>Red Hat said there is value in driving strong integration between software and hardware in the cloud space.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;OpenStack is a rapidly-growing, open source cloud infrastructure platform that is cost-effective, open, flexible and highly scalable,\u201d said Radhesh Balakrishnan, general manager, OpenStack, Red Hat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are excited about Fujitsu\u2019s offering based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform to deliver private cloud infrastructure solutions and we look forward to continuing the collaboration to provide customers with an innovative cloud platform for digital business initiatives,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Red Hat isn\u2019t the only OpenStack vendor boosting its converged infrastructure strategy as of late.
