Red Hat Summit
Welcome to Hatville
The miniature city where edge computing comes to life
Explore this tiny metropolis and experience how edge computing can revolutionize industries all around us.
See Edge in action
Manufacturing
In Hatville’s factories, red hats are built around-the-clock to keep up with demand. Edge computing keeps the line moving, avoiding failures and managing risk.
1Equipment failure prediction
Red Hat Device Edge is used to predict equipment failure to catch issues before they become issues.
2Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES)
Red Hat OpenShift powers the high-availability systems that keep production on schedule.
3Product inspection
Red Hat Device Edge puts AI/ML right on the assembly line, immediately detecting errors in production.
4Autonomous guided Vehicles (AGV)
Red Hat Device Edge navigates AGVs to keep your inventory supply chain moving continuously and efficiently.
Transportation
Along Hatville’s roads and railways, intermodal sites connect trains and trucks to make a single, fluid supply chain that safely keeps inventory flowing from the source to customers.
1Wayside devices
Red Hat Device Edge keeps remote transportation connected back to base for logistics monitoring, on-board cargo status updates and more.
2Transportation coordination
Red Hat OpenShift can power multi-modal transportation management to create the most efficient scheduling, planning and optimization.
3Safety and security
Red Hat Device Edge can protect people and capital with on-site video AI/ML for fast, private monitoring.
Retail
In Hatville’s fedora shop, customers love to try on hats with our augmented reality (AR) mirror - while the business automates and connects the back office and point of sale.
1Back office and inventory
Red Hat OpenShift powers catalog and pricing systems to run the business behind the business.
2Augmented reality
Red Hat Device Edge powers an AR mirror so you can try on every hat in the store, without wearing every hat in the store.
3Point of sale desks
Red Hat Device Edge is used to close the sale and connect directly to the rest of the business.
Get started with Red Hat’s portfolio of Edge products
A flexible platform that supports different workloads across small, resource-constrained devices at the farthest edge. It combines Red Hat Enterprise Linux with the Red Hat build of MicroShift, a lightweight Kubernetes distribution, and Ansible Automation Platform
A unified enterprise application and container orchestration platform that extends Kubernetes capabilities to edge sites with consistent operations and application life cycle management at scale using flexible topology options to support low-latency workloads anywhere.
An automation platform that simplifies the deployment of hundreds to thousands of devices with an automated approach to device, network and application life cycle management across heterogeneous hardware and software environments.
