Red Hat is in the news again. This time for releasing the latest version of Enterprise “Red Hat OpenShift 4.8 Kubernetes platform”. Red Hat OpenShift 4.8 is released to offer a strong foundation for developing and connecting diverse workloads across the hybrid clouds and helping organizations speed up the creation of new cloud-native applications without deserting their existing environments.

As organizations are growing their application landscapes to meet their needs, Kubernetes platforms are not just for all open hybrid clouds, but also for the variety of workloads and applications running on them.

Accelerating Development Across Workloads and Simplifying Management

Red Hat OpenShift 4.8 based on Kubernetes 1.21 and CRI- O 1.21 runtime interfaces, simplifies the developer experience while expanding use cases and workloads across various industries. New features and enhancements include:

• IPv6/IPv4 dual-stack IPv6 single stack support offers applications with interoperability and communications for environments that use IPv6 and IPv4, like cloud-native networks and government agencies around the world that require the support of IPv6. This provides additional security to the application.
• OpenShift Pipeline allows users to define, control and track changes to the application delivery pipeline and the application source code. This helps developers in utilizing Git workflows to automate the deployments of their CI/CD pipelines. This helps them in turning their codes into features at a fast and secure pace. 
• Enhanced developer experience within OpenShift Console, also including the ability for spring bot developers to code and test before sharing the code on a broader basis. Red Hat Openshift 4.8 enables advanced scaling options for developer consoles to further improve serverless development. 
• OpenShift Serverless features – This allows developers to create and execute on-demand functions with OpenShift. The serverless capabilities of OpenShift help simplify, automate and accelerate application development removing the burden of manual infrastructure.
