Red Hat announced the expansion of OpenShift Marketplace, its one-stop shop that enables customers to find solutions for their cloud applications. With this, Red Hat has simplified the purchasing experience for OpenShift Marketplace, introducing integrated billing that enables customers to buy complementary solutions.
Additionally, Red Hat has expanded OpenShift Marketplace to include add-on offerings from several new OpenShift ecosystem partners.
As the number of OpenShift Online applications grows, recently passing two million applications on the platform, the expansion of OpenShift Marketplace is designed to offer both partners and customers a more streamlined experience.
The OpenShift Marketplace provides a platform for Software-as-as-Service (SaaS) ISVs to reach customers and developers in one easy, interactive location, and to showcase their solutions, giving customers access to a variety of offerings from cloud industry leaders.
According to Julio Tapia, director, OpenShift ecosystem, Red Hat, “Expanded billing options in the OpenShift Marketplace will give our customers and partners even more ways to enhance their OpenShift Online experience. We are pleased to welcome even more partners as we continue to build the marketplace and plan to offer even more capabilities for partners and customers to access industry-leading cloud applications.”
