Discover how Red Hat’s open hybrid cloud delivers IT services on any infrastructure quickly and cost effectively with a broad portfolio of hybrid cloud infrastructure, application services, cloud-native application development, and automation solutions.

Policy as Code has never been more important due to the high cost of downtime, the need to stay ahead of security risks, and the need to manage staff and IT costs more efficiently. Yet, in a highly complex multi-cloud environment, this can be a challenge. What if you could automate the implementation of internally-mandated and external regulatory controls so they are seamlessly implemented at every turn? How can you ensure that team members of all skill levels in development and operations can act consistently and according to your policies?

Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform can help you do this as we continually release new capabilities–and you can start preparing now.

Automating Policy as Code for consistency and compliance

Because networks are growing in scope, complexity, and importance, you need a way to improve speed, efficiency, accuracy and compliance across your network—all the way to the edge. Automation helps you meet these goals and unburdens you from repeated tasks that take time away from other priority network innovation needs. Now with event-driven automation, you can flexibly respond automatically to changing conditions to make more time for innovation and work smarter.

Red Hat® Ansible® Automation Platform is a single platform that can help automate across a variety of networking solutions, including Cisco and other multivendor technology in traditional network and new edge implementations.

Use network automation to manage your multivendor networks

Enterprise automation platforms such as Red Hat® Ansible® Automation Platform are an effective solution for organizations struggling to manage the complexity of their hybrid cloud environment, and can facilitate many significant operational improvements. Organizations now have the ability to choose between deploying Ansible on Microsoft Azure in 3 distinct ways: Managed Ansible Automation Platform on Azure, Self-managed Ansible on Azure, or Ansible on Red Hat Openshift.

Your organization’s success depends to some degree on “secrets” — private pieces of information that act as keys to unlock protected resources or sensitive information as part of the application development process. Today’s application development involves a multitude of orchestrated, interconnected components like tools, applications, containers, DevOps and cloud-native environments. And according to CyberArk, “every application, script, automation tool and other non-human identity relies on some form of privileged credential to access other tools, applications and data.”

In this webinar from Red Hat and Cyberark we’ll explore the lifecycle of a “secret,” the challenges around managing and securing secrets in the cloud, and how Red Hat and Cyberark work together to manage, automate and protect secrets to streamline app development.
