Red Hat specializes in open-source software solutions for large organizations and enterprises, focusing on cloud computing and enterprise software. Their main product, Red Hat OpenShift, is a Kubernetes-based platform that allows businesses to manage containerized applications efficiently across various cloud environments.

Red Hat operates on a subscription-based model, where clients pay for access to software, updates, and customer support, along with professional services like consulting and training. Additionally, Red Hat offers a marketplace for certified enterprise software compatible with OpenShift, which includes tools like CockroachDB and Joget DX. The goal of Red Hat is to provide reliable and scalable software solutions that help enterprises optimize their operations and enhance application performance.
