Partners lead our Business to market

Neeraj Bhatia, Director – Channel and Partner Alliances – Red Hat, India and South Asia, says, “In today’s technology era, organizations are upgrading their IT infrastructure and implementing virtualization and cloud computing solutions to improve business agility and cost efficiency. Open source is one of the only enterprise software technology platforms that offers true choice and integrated technology to embrace the ever evolving digital economy. The data says, three out of one server imported is into open source. Very soon, it is going to be a 50:50 ratio.”

Owing to the several benefits it offers, the open environment is in demand and every single enterprise has seen the ways of doing business to bring innovation faster to market. The key sectors that are driving the growth of open data centers are BFSI, telecom, IT, social media and e-governance initiatives. The primary advantage that open-source technologies bring to data centers is standardization.

Open source has now become the key driver in the design, implementation and management of new generation data centers. It also helps in increasing interoperability and ensure smooth, agile and efficient service delivery. With the increased use of cloud-based infrastructure, there is even more demand for standardized applications and operating environments which are open source in nature. 

With the government’s open-source policies for initiatives such as Digital India, Make in India and other various important projects being run on open source, massive amount of data is being generated which needs proper data center solutions.

Red Hat’s business partners play an important role in educating customers and guiding them through this transformation to be a truly digital era business.
