New Delhi: Red Hat has announced a major expansion of its collaboration with NVIDIA to better align enterprise open-source technologies with the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence and rack-scale computing.
As enterprises move beyond single-server deployments to high-density, unified systems, the partnership aims to provide a strong foundation for next-generation AI infrastructure.
Central to this effort is the introduction of Red Hat Enterprise Linux for NVIDIA, a specialized edition of Red Hat’s flagship enterprise Linux platform. The new offering is optimized for the NVIDIA Rubin platform and tuned to support future AI production workloads on Red Hat OpenShift and Red Hat AI.
Day 0 Support for NVIDIA Architectures
Red Hat plans to deliver Day 0 support for the latest NVIDIA architectures across its hybrid cloud and AI portfolios. According to Red Hat President and CEO Matt Hicks, the expanded collaboration will help enterprises adopt new AI technologies faster and with greater confidence through open-source innovation.
Preparing AI for Production at Scale
The NVIDIA Rubin platform, powered by the new NVIDIA Vera CPU and Rubin GPUs, is designed to deliver major performance gains for agentic AI and advanced reasoning workloads. By optimizing its hybrid cloud portfolio for this platform, Red Hat aims to help enterprises scale AI workloads while maintaining consistency across on-premises, cloud, and edge environments.
