• Red Hat to use RHIPE's expertise to identify, recruit, and enable cloud service providers

OPEN source solutions provider Red Hat Inc is collaborating with RHIPE (formerly NewLease), a global Cloud Channel Company, to expand Red Hat’s cloud ecosystem in the region.

RHIPE is the first Red Hat Certified Cloud Provider distributor in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand. The collaboration will enable Red Hat to use RHIPE's expertise to identify, recruit, and enable cloud service providers into Red Hat's network of Red Hat Certified Cloud Providers, said the company in a statement.

Red Hat's Certified Cloud Provider model is beneficial to service providers, giving them access to Red Hat solutions and support to help customers who wish to leverage Red Hat's technologies on the cloud.

Launched in 2009, the Red Hat Certified Cloud Provider Programme assembles the solutions cloud providers need to plan, build, manage and offer hosted cloud solutions and Red Hat technologies to customers.

A Red Hat Certified Cloud Provider offers a trusted destination for Red Hat customers, independent software vendors (ISVs), and partners to benefit from Red Hat offerings in public clouds under innovative consumption and service models delivered by the cloud providers.
