Application Building

CF:  Presumably your expectation or hope is this will result in partners building more applications and getting solutions to market.

KG: For sure, product adoption is very important for us. Within Red Hat, we put a lot of emphasis on our relationship with partners, and the experience they have with us. If there are friction areas, we do want to elevate what they are and find ways of improving them. At the end of the day, their ability to have more product adoption gives our customers the ability to have more product adoption. Whether it’s our Red Hat OpenShift platform, or whether it’s on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, it’s only going to improve the customer experience with their ability to be more confident in our product.
