The controller runs outside the cluster and plugs into Project Syn's existing config pipeline.
The PoC validated end-to-end on a Talos Linux cluster in a private libvirt network. A promising sign that bootable containers are a compelling model for infrastructure appliances, not just app workloads.

#TrueNAS Is Now #RedHat #OpenShift Certified
Red Hat wrote an email explaining their move to restructure their certification program and how they are sorry because they have interrupted my plans to become a Red Hat Certified Architect.
To become a RHCA before, you had to become a Red Hat Certified Engineer (Ansible + RHEL Admin) first.
From that, you chose five other certifications from a list to learn and pass the exams.
Now there is not one but different RHCAs by topics, such as "Cloud and Containers", "RHEL Linux Admin", "Automation", etc.
I already passed two of the five exams (Specialist in Containers and Openshift Admin).
They want me to decide which new path I'd like to follow or whether to follow the old model until the end of 2026. π€

The team has published a new guide to setup Red Hat Openshift Container Platform (RHOCP) on Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization (RHOCPV) with IBM Z

Check this out -- an enterprise IT news story in 2026 that does not -- repeat, does NOT -- involve or even mention AI. How about that?
If you'd told me 10 years ago I'd be writing about hypervisors in 2026, you could've knocked me over with a feather.
But that's exactly what this dispatch from #RHSummit is about -- companies including Cleveland Clinic, Emirates NBD and FedHIVE escaping skyrocketing #VMware bills from #Broadcom and finding refuge with #RedHat and its #OpenShift Virtualization platform. Also features news updates about the product this week, including a new migration utility

One of the most useful Red Hat products I use daily is also one of the least-known: the Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal (RHOKP).
It is basically a self-hosted, locally searchable mirror of docs.redhat.com + the Red Hat Knowledgebase in a single container image.
Perfect for:
- air-gapped environments
- customer networks with painful proxies
- trains, planes, and terrible WiFi
- anyone who wants docs that still work offline
I wrote up how it works, why I think it matters, and how to run it locally with Podman:
