Red Hat has announced support for Red Hat OpenShift on Google Cloud Dedicated.
The offering is aimed at highly regulated industries like financial services, healthcare and government, intending to provide the isolated infrastructure and operational independence needed to meet what it describes as “stringent national and regional digital sovereignty mandates.”
Red Hat OpenShift offers dedicated, isolated infrastructure to comply with local laws and regional sovereignty regulations, while built-in GPU support enables customers to build, deploy and manage advanced AI workloads while remaining fully compliant with local security mandates and organisational security policies.
Red Hat OpenShift also provides a bridge for modernising traditional workloads, maintaining consistency across on-premises and managed cloud environments.
Mike Barrett, VP of hybrid cloud platforms at Red Hat said digital sovereignty is no longer just about where data resides; it’s about maintaining operational control over technology, strategic flexibility and trust.
"By collaborating with Google to bring Red Hat OpenShift to Google Cloud Dedicated, we are providing our customers in highly regulated markets with a sovereign-ready foundation for the AI era," he said.
"This allows them to harness the power of the hybrid cloud while maintaining the operational independence necessary for long-term resilience."
"By bringing Red Hat OpenShift to Google Cloud Dedicated, we are helping organisations in the most regulated industries to accelerate their hybrid cloud adoption and AI initiatives on a dedicated, security-focused foundation that fully supports their digital sovereignty requirements," Jai Haridas, VP and GM for regulated and sovereign cloud at Google Cloud, said.
Availability of OpenShift on Google Cloud Dedicated is slated for the second half of this year.
