Red Hat Recognized as Leader and Furthest in Vision in 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Container Management

RALEIGH, N.C., Sept. 16, 2024 — Red Hat, Inc. has announced that Red Hat has been positioned by Gartner as a Leader and furthest on the Completeness of Vision axis in the Magic Quadrant for Container Management for its Red Hat OpenShift offering.

Additionally, Red Hat ranked first in three of six Use Cases in the 2024 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Container Management, including Hybrid Container Development, Container Management Tooling and Edge Container Deployment.

“We are proud to be recognized as a Leader and Furthest in Completeness of Vision in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Container Management,” said Mike Barrett, Red Hat’s vice president and general manager for Hybrid Cloud Platforms. “We believe this recognition is a testament not only to Red Hat OpenShift’s current capabilities, but also our vision for enabling the solution to best meet the needs of tomorrow, including powering intelligent and AI-enabled workloads. With Red Hat OpenShift, organizations have a complete application development platform with built-in DevSecOps tools, helping them bring cloud-native applications to market faster — wherever they may live across the hybrid cloud.”

Red Hat OpenShift is a comprehensive platform for developing, modernizing and deploying applications at scale, including AI-enabled apps. It provides a consistent experience across hybrid environments — from the datacenter, to the cloud, to the edge.

With Red Hat OpenShift, organizations have a unified platform with a complete set of tools and services as well as security and compliance capabilities integrated directly into the platform, streamlining the entire application lifecycle, from development to delivery to management. Available in both fully managed or self-managed options, Red Hat OpenShift runs wherever and however customers need.

The Gartner Magic Quadrant for Container Management evaluated 12 vendor solutions and was based on specific criteria that analyzed the company’s overall completeness of vision and ability to execute. According to Gartner, Leaders execute well against their current vision and are well positioned for tomorrow.
