Page 101 - Red Hat PR REPORT - JULY 2025

7/10/25, 8:48 AM Red Hat introduces Red Hat Enterprise Linux for business developers
business-focused development and testing scenarios. A new self-service offering through the Red Hat
Developer Program, Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Business Developers helps business development
teams build, test and iterate on applications more quickly and on the same platform that underpins
production systems across the hybrid cloud at no cost.

IT complexity continues to grow, especially as applications deployed across physical, virtual, cloud and
edge sites intermingle with AI, cloud-native and virtualized workloads. Further compounding this
difficulty is a cybersecurity landscape seeing a continued upward trend in not just software
vulnerabilities, but also software supply chain attacks, according to the latest Red Hat Product Security

Risk Report. This dynamic climate underscores the importance of a reliable, hardened and consistent
platform across not just production environments, but also developer workstations.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Business Developers directly addresses these concerns by providing
developers self-serve, no-cost access to a complete set of enterprise-ready, Red Hat Enterprise Linux
content for use within their businesses. It helps provide greater consistency and reliability across

developer and operations teams, regardless of where on the hybrid cloud the resulting application will
live.

Red Hat’s latest developer offering includes:

Simplified access to the world’s leading enterprise Linux platform with the self-service ability to

entitle up to 25 physical, virtual or cloud-based instances per registered user as a member of the
Red Hat Developer Program. This helps mitigate friction with operations teams by developing
business applications on the same platform that runs production workloads.
Curated and signed developer content, including many of the latest open source application
programming languages, tools and databases necessary for building next-generation enterprise

applications.
Powerful open source container tooling with Podman Desktop, Red Hat’s preferred container
development tool for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Developers gain full access to Red Hat software

components for development and testing purposes, including the ability to create bootable
container images.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Business Developers users will be able to purchase a range of optional
Red Hat Developer Support subscriptions, which brings Red Hat’s decades of Linux expertise to back
their projects.

Developers working outside of traditional IT, such as in a line of business, can now more easily access

Red Hat Enterprise Linux to start developing new projects. These developers can also build and test on
the same platform that is approved for production, making it easier to transition applications to
production while reducing friction between teams.
