Red Hat OpenShift – an interesting alternative option for virtualisation

Infrastructure Published 23rd July 2024

TD SYNNEX has launched a campaign aimed at highlighting the benefits to customers and partners of migrating customers who are currently on other platforms to Red Hat OpenShift which, as well as built-in virtualisation capabilities, enables a gradual move to containers.


► Easy to move workloads between on-premises and public cloud platforms

► Customers can migrate to containers at their own pace

► Keeps costs down and provides stable platform for future development


The team has already staged a round table discussion on the subject as part of its most recent Red Hat Industry Ecosystem meeting. Communications and resources have been created to give partners the information they need to talk to customers about Red Hat OpenShift as an option.

Red Hat OpenShift – an interesting alternative option for virtualisation

Chloe Wise, Business Manager, Red Hat at TD SYNNEX, said: ‘We know many customers are facing challenges at the moment with their virtualization platforms and are looking at alternative options. Red Hat OpenShift is a great choice as it delivers the same performance and functionality for customers' virtual environments, but with the additional flexibility to modernize and migrate workloads to containers – which are very much seen as the future for apps deployment – at their own pace.’

It is also a stable platform for future development and will enable customers to keep costs under control. Workloads deployed with Red Hat OpenShift can be moved easily between different cloud platforms and on-premises resources.

As well as access to Red Hat migration tools, the TD SYNNEX Red Hat Ecosystem drives cross-partner collaboration to deliver customers' migration and adoption of OpenShift to a containerised approach. Importantly, this can be done at their own pace. ‘No customer will want to move everything over at once, but it’s good to know that help is available if it’s needed.
