KEY ATTRIBUTES
Stable and trusted platform
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is the sixth generation of a long-term, predictable operating plat-
form. With the flexibility to deploy on physical hardware, as a virtual host, as a virtual guest,
or in the cloud, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is the ideal foundation for next-generation data-
centers. It ensures long-term stability while continuing to innovate and deliver enhancements —
delivering the optimal combination of innovation and stability.

Key partnerships across the industry allow Red Hat to ensure the stability of the platform
across the broad ecosystem of systems and applications. With embedded engineering and
deep collaboration, Red Hat is on the forefront of the commercial maturation of technology.

deep collaboration, Red Hat is on the forefront of the commercial maturation of technology.
Customers benefit through the distribution of timely service packs and interim releases. The
modular architecture of Red Hat Enterprise Linux allows functionality enhancements that do
not effect application interfaces. Applications do not need to be rebuilt or recertified when they
are updated because the application programming and binary interfaces (API/ABI) remain the
same for the full life of a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release regardless of the physical, virtual, or
cloud deployment model. This means that Red Hat’s rich ecosystem of thousands of certified
applications are kept available, avoiding delays that would otherwise occur with expensive and

applications are kept available, avoiding delays that would otherwise occur with expensive and
time-consuming retesting efforts every time a vendor upgrades its software.
Other features ensure that Red Hat Enterprise Linux is both scalable and trusted. Software
RAID, storage multipath support, and network bonding provide resiliency in network and
storage areas. File-system capabilities such as barriers and TRIM support allow for data safety
and thin provisioning, while logical volume management provides disk abstraction. These are
among the few features that have evolved to make Red Hat Enterprise Linux one of the most
stable and trusted IT platforms.

Flexibility
Red Hat Enterprise Linux offers customers a wide range of options for tailoring the operating
system to their specific environments. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 includes new definitions of
feature component groups to allow easy feature selection from a minimal install for a basic
runtime environment, to a full set of feature selections including storage options, systems man-
agement, graphical interfaces, and administrative utilities. In addition to support for a breadth
of infrastructure options, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 also includes a complete portfolio of open
source applications. With supported applications ranging from web infrastructure to databases
and development frameworks, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 installations are suitable for a broad
range of workloads.

In addition to feature flexibility, Red Hat Enterprise Linux also offers deployment flexibility,
with support for a wide range of hardware from industry-standard servers to mainframes,
and new subscription options for extending its lifecycle with Extended update Support (EuS)
and Extended Lifecycle Support (ELS).

Customers also get operational flexibility through automated deployment features such as
the kickstart tools, automatic system updates, and auditing capabilities of Red Hat network.
Red Hat network, and its on-premise version Red Hat network Satellite, helps organizations
lower their per-system deployment and management costs, reduces unplanned downtime
by automating and centralizing routine tasks, and creates a consistent environment.

CITIGROUP INNOVATES
There is a big push within Citi to
drive IT optimization and con-
sistency. By delivering a com-
mon global Linux build across
the enterprise, the firm has
been able to retire a number of
one-off infrastructure software
products and their associated
costs. In the process, it has been
able to negotiate enterprise-level
agreements for a reduced num-
ber of third-party products that
ber of third-party products that
can be leveraged across both
hardware platforms.
Additionally, virtualization has
proven to be a successful strat-
egy for optimizing hardware
utilization. IBM mainframes
have a long tradition of deliver-
ing virtualization and perform
especially well for workloads
that require heavy input/output,
whereas the value proposition
for virtualization on x86 mainly
comes from the low cost of entry
and the ability to scale out mas-
sively. With a common Red Hat
Enterprise Linux build, Citi is able
to choose the virtualization that
best meets its requirements.
