environment, which reduces the time spent updating at the production site. Additionally,
if an update fails or the application doesn’t return to a functioning state, it can be rolled
back to the pre-update state. This helps to restore service as quickly as possible,
regardless of whether the update is successful or not.

Additionally, the OpenShift-based Appliance Builder is now available as a technology
preview to Red Hat partners seeking to build turnkey, customized appliances with self-
contained Red Hat OpenShift instances. The OpenShift-based Appliance Builder is a
container-based utility that builds a disk image that includes the Agent-based Installer,
which is used to install multiple Red Hat OpenShift clusters. This makes it easier to
install Red Hat OpenShift at remote edge sites at scale, as it can be done with limited or
no connectivity and without the need for an external registry.

Scaling workload security across the hybrid cloud

According to Red Hat’s 2024 State of Kubernetes Security Report, security issues
continue to impact business outcomes, with 67% of respondents indicating that their
companies delayed or slowed application development as a result of rising concerns.
Additionally, the complexity of container-based Kubernetes environments is also a factor
that some organizations still struggle with.

Helping organizations take a security-forward approach to building, deploying and
maintaining cloud-native applications at scale, Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security
Cloud Service is now generally available. Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security Cloud
Service is a fully managed Kubernetes-native security cloud service that supports both
Red Hat OpenShift as well as non-Red Hat Kubernetes platforms, including Amazon
Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and Microsoft
Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). With Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security Cloud
Service, organizations can start securing workloads within minutes while scaling more
easily across clouds and geographies without the additional overhead or complexities.
