How open data standards make Brno a better city

Robert Spal

Brno, Czech Republic, is home to the world’s largest Red Hat technology center, and it was the birthplace of the university-industry relationship model that became Red Hat Research. Here’s how the smart city concept has been implemented in one of our hometowns. The article stems from a presentation at DevConf.cz 2022. To flourish in an […]

How COVID made our world smaller

Idan Levi

RHRQ interviewed Idan Levi, the Research Interest Group leader in Israel, to find out how research collaboration has changed over the last year and a half as the world went virtual.  RHRQ: As the leader of Red Hat Research in Israel, you work with universities that are geographically dispersed, for example, Technion to the north, […]

How to open source cloud operations

Marcel Hild

Open source has become a dominant paradigm for developing software. One major factor for its success is its transparency: if you have a problem with the software, you can peek into the details of the code, search the issue tracker, ask for help, and maybe even provide a fix. This means that even though most users don’t write code, the mere fact that everything is open will help the majority of users. Now it’s time to apply the open source model to the cloud.

Europe RIG increases collaboration with the European Commission to drive innovation for addressing global challenges

Matej Hrušovský

The year 2022 was exceptional for Red Hat Research in a multitude of ways. After more than two years of only virtual gatherings, we successfully organized Red Hat Research Day Europe, an international in-person event held in Brno, Czech Republic. We further consolidated and aligned our team’s goals with the goals of the company and […]

Call for Code: tech for good

Solutions addressing climate change, food and water scarcity, and racial justice are among the Call for Code challenge winners. For the last four years, IBM has issued a challenge to the world’s software developers to design and build applications that would have an impact on a global environmental or social issue using open source software.  […]

Anchored keys: scaling of in-memory storage for serverless data analytics

Tristan Tarrant

The strategy for scaling data capacity varies according to volume, access patterns, and cost-effectiveness. We look at an approach that achieves optimal results in the context of serverless data analytics. Big data holds great promise for solving complex problems, but data-intensive applications are necessarily limited by the difficulty of supporting and maintaining them. The CloudButton […]

Tuning Linux kernel policies for energy efficiency with machine learning

Han Dong

Presenting BayOp, a generic ML-enhanced controller that optimizes network application efficiency by automatically controlling performance and energy trade-offs. As global datacenter energy use rises and energy budgets are constrained, it becomes increasingly important for operating systems (OS) to enable higher efficiency and get more work done while consuming less. Concurrently, the environmental footprint of hardware […]

Setting the standard for PhD support in the Czech Republic

Matej Hrušovský

Collaboration between industry and academia has become a popular talking point in tech, but that wasn’t always the case. When Red Hat Czech took the first steps towards supporting PhD students directly, this type of funding and mentorship was not common. The initiative began in 2015, in cooperation with the Faculty of Informatics at Masaryk […]
