With digital sovereignty now serving as a strategic differentiator, IT leaders increasingly seek reliable sovereignty blueprints that balance innovation with risk mitigation. To help organizations address this need, Red Hat is firmly committed to driving sovereignty through community, ecosystem and innovation, not isolation. According to an IDC Market Perspective, nearly nine in 10 organizations globally want choice and control when deploying AI at scale, and more than half prefer open models over closed, proprietary ones1.
By bringing Red Hat OpenShift, underpinned by Red Hat Enterprise Linux, to Google Cloud Dedicated, Red Hat extends even greater choice to organizations that seek ownership and control over their complete technology stack while maintaining high levels of workload security and operational resilience.
