Red Hat Unveils Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization

Engine

By News Desk 1 20/01/2025

Red Hat, Inc., the world’s leading provider of open source solutions, today announced the general availability

of Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization Engine, a new edition of Red Hat OpenShift that provides a dedicated
way for organizations to access the proven virtualization functionality already available within Red Hat
OpenShift. Focused exclusively on virtualization workloads, Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization Engine

provides a tailored option for deploying, managing and scaling virtual machines (VMs), removing features
unrelated to VM management. This ensures organizations can maximize the value of OpenShift Virtualization
while aligning with their specific infrastructure needs.

While containerization may have shifted how virtual machines are used for certain applications, VMs remain
a critical tool in IT infrastructure. However, with the virtualization market experiencing significant changes in

recent years, many organizations face uncertainty and rising costs when it comes to managing their
virtualization infrastructure.

Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization Engine delivers a cost-efficient virtualization-only solution for deploying,
managing and scaling virtual machines.

Redefined virtualization through a streamlined approach

Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization Engine helps maximize the value of these investments by entitling only
essential OpenShift features and components required for virtualization, delivering simplified operations and

improved efficiency. Powered by Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization and the KVM hypervisor used across the
enterprise datacenter and cloud, Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization Engine is able to run on on-premises
hardware that supports Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and on supported bare metal cloud services including AWS

bare metal instances. Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization Engine scales to meet workload demands while
providing built-in security capabilities and more consistent performance across the hybrid cloud.
