Grow your revenue with Red Hat OpenShift.

Organisations of all sizes and in all industries are quickly adopting Kubernetes containers. As the leading enterprise-grade Kubernetes platform, Red Hat® OpenShift® offers you opportunities to increase your revenue and profit potential by providing implementation and ongoing management services, and building and delivering your own technology solutions.

What is Red Hat OpenShift?

OpenShift is an enterprise-ready container platform. Built on Kubernetes – the open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerised applications – it provides a consistent application foundation for managing hybrid cloud, multicloud and edge deployments.

It enables a cultural change within development and operations teams – allowing them to refactor monolithic applications and break them down into more manageable, dynamic, fast-to-deploy microservices. It’s a modern, transformational way of working and deploying and managing applications.

The benefits of selling Red Hat OpenShift:

A Forrester Consulting report commissioned by Red Hat – the Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study – found that Red Hat OpenShift partners increase revenue, secure larger deal size, close more deals, and provide more strategic value to customers. Partners generate high levels of income from project work that involves building, integrating, migrating, deploying and managing customers.

Many are already taking advantage of the opportunities around Red Hat OpenShift and containers. According to Forrester’s Business Technographics® research, 79% of decision makers are currently or planning to adopt “containers with a Kubernetes-orchestrated platform.”

Subscriptions typically range from around $10,000 to $1 million per annum, and additional value of the services typically 75% of that subscription revenue, the potential for partners is huge.

Building your managed services business.

There are also great opportunities to provide managed services for OpenShift customers, get closer to them, and extend the on-going value of the relationship. Becoming an OpenShift partner is a strategic move and a real competitive differentiator for your business. It will make you more relevant to customers and open up even more growth potential.

For all these reasons, Red Hat OpenShift is a massive opportunity – and one that’s only in its infancy. Get on board now and you’ll have an early-mover advantage.
