“Red Hat…announced the Red Hat Ready Program, the most
comprehensive hardware certification program for ensuring hardware
compatibility with the popular Red Hat Linux operating systems
(OS).”
“The Red Hat Ready certification program uses a rigorous,
thorough testing methodology from a trusted authority in open
source solutions that assures enterprise users that their hardware
choices are compatible with the Red Hat Linux OS.“
“”Enterprise users cannot settle for poor performance or
reliability in mission critical applications and Internet
initiatives and often won’t purchase equipment that isn’t certified
by the OS vendor,” said Paul McNamara, enterprise business unit
leader, at Red Hat, Inc. “The Red Hat Ready program delivers
enterprise users the assurance they need to confidently deploy the
powerful Red Hat Linux OS and top hardware solutions throughout the
enterprise. American Power Conversion (APC) has become the first
computer peripheral vendor to receive Red Hat Ready certification.
APC’s Back-UPS(R), Back-UPS Pro(R) and Smart-UPS(R) uninterruptible
power supplies (UPS) have passed Red Hat Ready certification
ensuring proper operation with the Red Hat Linux operating
system.”
