Red Hat Summit is back—and we’re excited to be in Atlanta for one of the biggest open source and cloud-native events of the year.

From May 11–14, the Portworx by Everpure team will be on-site at the Georgia World Congress Center, connecting with customers, partners, and the broader Red Hat ecosystem. This year, we’re focused on helping organizations move faster as they rethink virtualization, modernize applications, and scale AI workloads.

Here’s what we have planned.

A Unified Approach to Modern Infrastructure

Enterprise IT is evolving—but it’s not a clean break from the past. Most organizations are navigating a mix of:

  • Traditional virtual machines
  • Containerized applications
  • Emerging AI workloads

The challenge isn’t choosing one—it’s making them all work together.

At Red Hat Summit 2026, we’re showcasing how Portworx and Red Hat deliver a unified approach built on OpenShift—bringing VMs, containers, and AI workloads onto a single platform with consistent data management.

This approach is grounded in a few key ideas:

  • Modernization is incremental, not disruptive
  • Flexibility matters—across environments and workloads
  • Teams need control over how and where applications run

With Portworx and Red Hat, organizations can:

  • Run VMs and containers side-by-side with shared data services
  • Support AI workloads with scalable, high-performance storage
  • Operate consistently across hybrid and multi-cloud environments
  • Simplify Day 2 operations with integrated data management

We’re hosting a series of sessions that highlight real-world examples of modernization—from virtualization transformation to AI acceleration.
