Red Hat is an IBM subsidiary providing enterprise open source software including Red Hat Enterprise Linux, OpenShift, and Ansible Automation Platform, with cloud services managed through the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console. The Hybrid Cloud Console exposes REST APIs for subscription management, system inventory, vulnerability and patch management, notifications, RBAC, and other cloud services across hybrid environments.
