Red Hat is contributing llm-d to the #CNCF, turning fragmented AI into modular, interoperable microservices. 🐧

The goal? Make AI inference a first-class citizen in the same cloud-native environment as your traditional apps.

I love how Red Hat continues to fuel the #OpenSource ecosystem. From our roots in #Kubernetes and #etcd to newer projects like #KEDA and #CRI-O, we’re committed to building "well-lit paths" for everyone.

Why we’re contributing llm-d to the CNCF: Standardizing the future of AI

Red Hat is contributing llm-d to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as a Sandbox project to standardize high-performance, distributed AI inference serving within the cloud-native stack. This contribution aims to bridge the capabilities gap between AI experimentation and production by providing a specialized data-plane orchestration layer that maximizes infrastructure efficiency and enables flexible deployment on any choice of hardware.

In AI research, the hurdle isn't just compute—it's maintaining control at scale. Managing 4.3M+ GitHub projects requires a rock-solid architectural foundation.

It’s impressive to see NAIRR leveraging #RHEL, #OpenShift, and OpenShift AI to bridge the gap between shared resources and true ownership. This is how you scale innovation without drowning in tech debt.

NAIRR, Red Hat, and open source help provide the control plane for AI research

NAIRR, a national program led by the NSF, is democratizing access to high-end AI compute for researchers by creating a shared national infrastructure. Red Hat provides an open source foundation, including OpenShift and OpenShift AI, to serve as the control plane for this infrastructure, helping to maintain project-level boundaries, research isolation, and digital sovereignty.

The #RedHat event team for #KubeCon getting ready for a busy first day. Come and visit!

And this is my drawing based on Contra Force (Dendy). Dude came prepared. He took his favorite red cap and a self-modified KG Creep 12 rifle. Next up are mutants. And there will be a lot of them. A bright sky. A pier. Water nearby. And mutants are just emerging from the ship. There are a lot of them. And they're very large.

Ah, the good ol days.

Actually, it doesn't.

But the legislative record does. The California legislature has detailed accounts of what was brought up, pro and con, in committee.

It shows that the only 'free' things that the objectors thought about, the only things recorded as formal objections by concerned parties, were gratis applications on Microsoft/Google/Apple App Stores, and a supposed effect on their development costs.

No-one mentioned the #Unix model of user accounts or the BSD/Linux-based/Illumos-based operating system models of application packaging.

That said, it really was up to someone like IBM to spot this and lobby at the very least for #RedHat and RPMs to be taken into consideration in the definitions of 'covered application store' and whatnot.

It's good that someone is doing that. IBM seriously dropped the ball when it came to lobbying about this, given how it affects #RedHat. No-one even brought up the implications for #Unix-like operating systems in #California.

You're not the first person to talk about amending the California Bill. It's an Act now, not a Bill, though. It's nigh on impossible to supersede it before 2027-01-01.

The politics, as well as the physical realities of how long it takes to enact legislation, mean that there just isn't the time, even if the will could be drummed up.

The current Act took 8 months to pass, itself, and not only is there no-one in California really lobbying to fix this, there's also the political problem of seeming to want to carve a massive exemption in a law that only months ago passed through every stage in the legislature with zero 'no' votes.

Acabo de encontrar unos cds antiguos, del 2001, que regalaban las revistas de temática de Linux, de entonces. Le he dicho a Gemini que haga un callage chulo, con las fotos que he hecho. #mandrake #barrapunto #redhat #viejuno

A few days ago, I installed #centos stream,    the middle ground between #fedora   and #redhat   

This combination of a solid, but not too conservative OS with flatpaks from #flathub as the standard source of apps is quite interesting. I admit that there are some provisos I have to overcome regarding the stability.

Maybe some more of the essential apps should go to #epel.

Just got Red Hat 5.2 (from 1998, not RHEL 5.2, that's a different Linux) installed on my Pentium 1 laptop (Compaq Tecra 530CDT). Had to install to a disk image using pcem, clone the image to sdcard, fix lilo that got clobbered during sdcard imaging, set up X11 and it works! Faster than Windows 98 by a significant margin! I had to do the install this way because I have no cd-r's and the cd drive is too old for cd-rw.
