Apologies for coming up with my article regarding the 2016 Red Hat Summit that was held in San Francisco a week late. The holidays will throw a person off and the fact that I was working another conference that same week.
If you’d like to know more about Red Hat and what they do, you can look them up online and submit an inquiry.
A lot of companies of various sizes, are partnering with Red Hat. Whether an organization consist of tech in general, healthcare, and in some cases even government, they’re using Red Hat for their IT cloud storage. Unlike other cloud based companies, Red Hat specializes in the IT side of things where as others are more for personal use or general corporate/enterprise files (none-IT related).
This conference rotates locations every year just like Cisco Live. The attendance level is minimal compared to other security or tech conferences, but it’s the most intimate in regard to meeting colleagues and getting other business related contacts. If you’re reading this and you or someone you know needs specialized services for the IT department of your company, then please look up the company’s website for this year’s conference or simply leave me a message at: anni@anniyang.net and I’ll reply with who I think fits your business needs from the reps of the companies I’ve met. Due keep in mind, that there are certain companies who are a better fit for government or hospital IT services that were present at the conference. I have made note of those who specialize in those areas.
I would highly recommend the Red Hat conference for those who are seeking special IT needs. There were classes and sessions that were available to help train people improve in their infrastructure. There were also around the clock (at the same time as the sessions) labs where people can get IT credits or get additional assistance from Red Hat specialists.
I would honestly admit that I normally am not a big fan of dealing with IT people, but the Red Hat employees along with niched customers and clients were some of the most pleasant people I’ve ever met in a professional setting. There are some companies that have been around for several years but are not big names in the IT space, and if I hadn’t attended the conference, I would have never met those people or even heard about their company directly.
What can best describe about Red Hat Summit 2016? Teamwork.
