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.

Apparently, I need to keep one non-#FIPS #RHEL system just to build #Python.
RHEL 10 maintenance support runs until 2035, with Extended Life Support after that. Panasonic Toughbook customers work in 5-year device replacement cycles.
Two full hardware lifecycles on the same OS. No forced platform migrations, no churn.
Techzine covered the Toughbook 56 launch in Stockholm — good write-up on why RHEL certification matters for defense and critical infrastructure.

Red Hat powers Panasonic Toughbook 56 with a rugged OS

During the unveiling of the latest Panasonic Toughbook in Stockholm, Windows 11 is running on its display units. However, customers of this rugged series

Panasonic TOUGHBOOK is certified on RHEL. I worked with the Panasonic team on the RHEL 10 roadmap, so it's cool to see this Q&A with their TOUGHBOOK PM about the partnership.
Air-gapped, enterprise-secured, containerized edge computing on hardware tested against drops, dust, and water for 30 years. Defense, emergency response, field work.

I spent a day updating a #MediaWiki on CentOS 6 to the latest MediaWiki version on a #RHEL 9 system. It was hard, plus I thought I got rid of all the RHELish systems <9 before. Please stop using #PHP.

Installing 4 VMs right now at the same time, my PC is maxed out when it comes to RAM at the moment.

Those are Sandbox/Testing VMs.

2 with RHEL 10.1 (Client and Server), one with Debian and one with Arch.
All of which are mostly for testing Ansible and Podman stuff.

Arch is nearly finished, the rest still have a good amount to download/install.

RHEL image mode has a value proposition nobody's talking about, and it's not security or compliance. It's confidence. When your OS is defined in a Containerfile and built in CI/CD, you get the same transactional safety net as git. I've been running Claude Code with --dangerously-skip-permissions for months because of it. As AI agents go mainstream, this matters more than people realize. https://crunchtools.com/image-mode-gave-me-the-confidence-to-go-fully-agentic/ #RHEL #bootc #AIAgents #Linux #ImageMode
