The introduction of Red Hat OpenShift containers on Cisco and Hitachi Adaptive Solutions for Converged Infrastructure comes at a critical time for enterprises facing the challenges of deploying and managing multiple applications across environments. According to a recent report, the application container market is expected to witness substantial growth, due to the rapid rise in AI-led digital transformation endeavors that are driving enterprises to adopt container technology. This shift is essential for organisations that seek to replace traditional IT tasks with automation software, effectively reducing deployment timelines for applications while also improving their performance and scalability. However, a Red Hat report revealed 67% of organisations have delayed or slowed container-based application deployments due to security concerns.
