Connect and orchestrate different clouds, including those in the hybrid environment, it will no longer be a problem for organizations of different sizes and great ambitions. With Red Hat Connectivity Link, solution launched by Red Hat at the beginning of this week, companies can integrate advanced traffic management and role-based access control (RBAC) directly into the Kurbenetes system, enhancing security and compliance across the entire IT sector.
Furthermore, graças ao Red Hat Connectivity Link equipes de desenvolvimento de aplicações e engenharia de plataformas podem gerenciar a conectividade de aplicações em ambientes de Kubernetes únicos ou multi-cluster — agilizando a definição, management and visibility of connectivity configurations and policies. The platform also enables organizations to reduce complexity by consolidating functions such as traffic routing, security and policy management in a single native solution in Kubernetes.
For Sarwar Raza vice president and general manager of the developer applications business unit at Red Hat, the software represents an advancement in the way organizations think about their technology journey. The connectivity of applications within and around infrastructure environments is essential for developing and scaling cloud-native workloads such as generative AI applications. From the Red Hat Connectivity Link, platform engineers and application developers can streamline operations, scale more efficiently across various environments and enhance security and compliance management across multiple layers of infrastructure using new cloud-native standards.”, declared.
Reducing complexity through a unified approach
The adoption of cloud-native architectures, containers and Kubernetes drove an explosion of applications, services and endpoints. In turn, this increased both the need and the challenges of setting up and governing connections between these components. Applications can span Kubernetes clusters, data centers and cloud providers. The technological advancements in generative AI and edge deployments are bringing more complexity and introducing new requirements for security and traffic management. With many organizations running applications in on-premises environments and multiple clouds, and deploying containers and virtual machines, managing application connectivity is complicated, costly and prone to errors
Historically, organizations need to implement individual tools for tasks such as API security and rate limiting, service meshes and application networks. Relying on multiple solutions requires specific product skills and time spent integrating these solutions with each other and with the Kubernetes environment. This leads to layers of complexity in the configuration and management of these environments. The Red Hat Connectivity Link provides a new path for application connectivity with a unified environment for development teams and a platform to manage connectivity through a single solution
Based on theKuadrant open source project, Red Hat Connectivity Link is a native Kubernetes solution designed to provide a cohesive experience and an efficient approach to managing application traffic. He leverages the new standard Kubernetes API Gateway and the widely adopted Envoy proxy technology to create integrated functionality and management experience for single and multi-cluster Kubernetes environments. The Red Hat Connectivity Link approach addresses the connectivity challenges faced by modern IT organizations with a single, integrated solution instead of a complex approach, in layers and multiproduct
OpenShift users can use the Red Hat Connectivity Link for a more consistent and efficient connectivity management experience across all clusters. With support for orchestrators like Istio and OpenShift Service Mesh, users have greater compatibility and flexibility in managing application connectivity in a wide variety of Kubernetes environments
