Red Hat designs RHEL for a decade-long run
================================================================================
> The newly released RHEL 7 includes Docker containers and the new terabyte-scaled XFS file system
IDG News Service - Knowing how system administrators enjoy continuity, Red Hat has designed the latest release of its flagship Linux distribution to be run, with support, until 2024.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 (RHEL 7), the completed version of which was shipped Tuesday, also features a number of new technologies that the company sees as instrumental for the next decade, including the Docker Linux Container system and the advanced XFS file system.
"XFS opens the door for a new class of business analytics, big data and data analytics," said Mark Coggin, Red Hat senior director of product marketing.
The last major update to RHEL, RHEL 6, was released in November 2010. Since then, server software has been used in an increasingly wide variety of operational scenarios, including providing the basis for bare metal servers, virtual machines, IaaS (infrastructure-as-a-service) and PaaS (platform-as-a-service) cloud packages.
Red Hat will support RHEL 7 with bug fixes and commercial support for up to 10 years. The company generally releases a major version of RHEL every three years.
In contrast, Canonical's Ubuntu LTS (long-term support) distributions are supported for five years. Suse Enterprise Linux [is also supported][1], in most aspects, for up to 10 years,
This is the first edition to include Docker, a container technology [that could act as a nimbler replacement][2] to full virtual machines used in cloud operations. Docker provides a way to package an application in a virtual container so that it can be run across different Linux servers.
Red Hat expects that containers will be widely deployed over the next few years as a way to package and run applications, thanks to their portable nature.
"Customers have told us they are looking for a lighter weight version of developing applications. The applications themselves don't need a full operating system or a virtual machine," Coggin said. The system calls are answered by the server's OS and the container includes only the necessary support libraries and the application. "We only put into that container what we need," he said.
Containers are also easier to maintain because users don't have to worry about updating or patching the full OS within a virtual machine, Coggin said.
Red Hat is also planning a special stripped-down release of RHEL, now code-named RHEL Atomic, which will be a distribution for just running containers. Containers that run on the regular RHEL can easily be transferred to RHEL Atomic, once that OS is available. They will also run on Red Hat OpenShift PaaS.
Red Hat is also supporting Docker through its switch in RHEL 7 to the systemd process manager, replacing Linux's long used init process manager. Systemd "gives the administrator a lot of additional flexibility in managing the underlying processes inside of RHEL. It also has a tie back to the container initiative and is very integral to the way the processes are stood up and managed in containers," Coggin said.
Red Hat has switched the default file system in RHEL 7 to XFS, which is able to keep track of up to 500TBs on a single partition. The previous default file system, ext4, was only able to support 50TBs. Ext4 is still available as an option, as well as another of other file systems such as GFS2 and Btrfs (under technology preview).
Red Hat has added greater interoperability with the Microsoft Windows environment. Organizations can now use Microsoft Active Directory to securely authenticate users on Red Hat systems. Tools are also included in RHEL 7 to offer Red Hat credentials for Windows servers.
"Customers have thousands of Windows servers and thousands of RHEL servers, and they to need ways to integrate the two," Coggin said.
The installation process has been sped up as well, thanks to an update to the Anaconda installer, which now allows administrators to preselect server configurations on the start of the installation process. The inclusion of the industry standard OpenLMI (Open Linux Management Infrastructure), which allows the administrator to manage services at a granular level through a standardized API (application programming interface).
"OpenLMI is another important way of improving stability and efficiency by helping to manage systems better," Coggin said.

What will your business look like in 2030?
================================================================================
![](http://cdn1.tnwcdn.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/2014/06/business-man-roof-deck-798x310.jpg)
lya Pozin is a serial entrepreneur, writer, and investor. He is the founder of online video entertainment platform [Pluto.TV][1], social greeting card company [Open Me][2], and digital marketing agency [Ciplex][3].
The year is 2030, and youre walking into the front doors of your company. What will it look like, what functions will your employees be performing and how will you stack up against the competition?
You might not be considering the future, but remember that [25 years ago][4], only 15 percent of US households had a personal computer. While 73 percent of online adults currently have a social media account, social media barely existed 15 years ago.
Technology is always changing, and with it come disruptions to industries, companies and the employment marketplace. The future is closing in, but is your company ready?
### Why should you be worried? ###
In business, to stop moving forward means your company is stagnating; for many companies, stagnation equates to eventual death. Companies clinging to outmoded and outdated business practices eventually run into major problems. There are examples everywhere in the marketplace, from struggling BlackBerry phones to Kodak slowly shuttering its film business.
According to [futurist and TED talk speaker Thomas Frey][5], two billion jobs will disappear by 2030 thanks to shifting technologies and changing needs. You cant afford to be behind the pack when the future comes calling.
### What will 2030 look like? ###
![](http://cdn1.tnwcdn.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/2014/05/calendar.jpg)
Recently, the [Canadian Scholarship Trust][6], as part of its Inspired Minds campaign, [put together a list of the jobs][7] we might all be hiring for in 2030. These jobs range from “Company Culture Ambassador” to get this! “Nostalgist.”
Taking CSTs lead, I spoke to some entrepreneurs and innovators in different fields, from medicine to marketing, to see their predictions for how businesses will be run in the future. Hopping in our time travel machine, heres a glimpse at what 2030 might look like:
### Cloud-based ###
“Everything will be cloud-based with faster speeds,” said Marjorie Adams, [AQB][8] CEO and President. “The technologies coming out now will be better defined and connected. While innovation from the business side could be a lot slower-going than the consumer side, we will have a lot more data to understand real needs.”
### Automated ###
Google is already leading the way with the self-driving car, but automation might creep into other aspects of our lives in the future.
“Home automation will be very different in 2030,” said Andrew Thomas, co-founder of [SkyBell Technologies, Inc][9] .“Well all have brain-sensing headbands and glasses and well just think about locking the door or turning off the lights. Our fridge will email the store when were low on food and our self-driving cars will go pick up the groceries for us!”
### Human curated ###
As more and more options become available to consumers, well all become overwhelmed by choice. Human curation will come back into vogue for everything from music to online video.
Were already seeing the trend start now with [Apples acquisition][10] of human curated music service Beats. After all, do you really think apps are [smarter than you][11]?
### Socially-connected ###
If you cant watch the latest episode of Scandal or Game of Thrones, its common sense to stay off your Facebook and Twitter feeds.
“Imagine a media environment 15 years into the future where no object or entertainment venue is out of reach for second-screen integration with social media,” said Jared Feldman, CEO and founder of [Mashwork][12]. “Social platforms like Facebook and Twitter might as well be agnostic at this point in time since consumers will have aggregated all of their digital social life into consolidated user profiles designed to curate multiple feeds and allow for single-source user engagement.”
### Targeted ###
Already advertising is becoming more and more targeted to consumers needs thanks to big data and algorithms. Dont expect this trend to move backwards, at least according to [FlexOne][13] CEO Matthijs Keij.
“Advertisers will know more about you than you yourself. Which products you like, how to improve your personal and work life, and even how to be more healthy. Sounds a little like Huxleys Brave New World? Maybe…but consumers might actually like it.”
### How do your prepare? ###
![](http://cdn1.tnwcdn.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/2011/01/Crystal-Ball-12-27-09-iStock_000003107697XSmall.jpg)
Preparing for the future might seem impossible, but you dont need a crystal ball to keep abreast of changes. Its important to always keep up with trends and emerging technology, both in the economy in general and within your industry in particular.
Go to conferences, attend industry talks, and make time for industry trade shows. Pay attention to the new technology entering your sector, and dont turn your nose up at something new just because its different than the way things have always been.
Understand your customers and know what they need, because the future is looking more consumer-focused than ever before, even in segments like healthcare. “The paradigm is shifting to a more “consumer-centric” model,” said Robert Grajewski, CEO of [Edison Nation Medical][14]. “Healthcare as a whole will shift to this individual care focus.”
Companies that understand their core competencies and their consumer needs will have a leg up on the competition.
As more digital natives come of age and flock into the economy, some highly skilled fields will see consumers picking up additional skills.
“By 2030 virtually everyone will be a designer, equipped with knowledge of the hottest mega trends and ripe and ready to replace those who cant keep up with the latest software,” said Ashley Mady, CEO of [Brandberry][15].
“The best way to prepare for this inevitable shift in the design world is to focus on creative, big picture thinking over production, which will soon become a commodity. Designers should remain innovative by developing their own adaptable brands and technology that will grow alongside the quickly evolving world we live in.”
Finally, its important to be open, curious, and willing to pivot. New technologies are going to come along to improve, and sometimes complicate, your business. You need to be willing to embrace these new paradigms, or you risk your company becoming obsolete.
What do you think? How do you plan to prepare for the future? Share in the comments!
