Red Hat Inc. has expanded and launched two “Engineering Centers of Excellence” in Bangalore and Pune, India. The Pune center is Red Hat’s largest engineering facility outside of North America at 50,000 sq. ft.
Red Hat’s expanded Asia-Pacific (APAC) operations are driven by growing market interest across the region in open source technologies and Red Hat products and solutions. Located in two of India’s most prominent IT hubs, Pune and Bangalore, the newly inaugurated facilities reflect Red Hat’s increased investments in the country. With the expansion in India, Red Hat hopes to incubate, sustain and support local talent and maintain high quality of contributions to the open source community locally and internationally.
Anuj Kumar, GM, Red Hat India said, “2012 is the year of the developer for Red Hat and with a growing number of developers coming from India, Red Hat brought several notable global developer events to APAC – Fedora Users and Developers’ Conference (FUDCon) in November 2011 in Pune and JBoss User and Developers Conference (JUDCon) in January 2012 in Bangalore. With our new facilities and events like this, we hope to continue showing our commitment to developers throughout the APAC region.”
Paul Cormier, Executive VP, Products & Technologies, Red Hat, said, “Innovative product development and engineering services are the cornerstone of any company with global aspirations and we expect the current expansion to further Red Hat’s goal to lead the way in innovative collaboration and open source technology development locally, regionally and globally.”
