Red Hat has announced Red Hat Advanced Developer Suite, an integrated suite of tools for developers that includes an internal developer platform, trusted software supply chain capabilities, platform application capabilities, and streamlined tools that simplify onboarding, development, and modernization.
Billed as part of the Red Hat OpenShift cloud application platform, Red Hat Advanced Developer Suite provides tools for platform engineering and developer teams to collaborate on building “golden paths,” using software templates that provide infrastructure, application services, tool chains, and best practices transparently, Red Hat said. Red Hat Advanced Developer Suite integrates with Red Hat AI Inference Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI, and Red Hat OpenShift AI to deliver security-focused, AI-enabled applications as well as cloud-native applications, the company said.
Announced May 20 and due to be available July 1, the Red Hat Advanced Developer Suite combines the following Red Hat offerings:
- Developer Hub, an enterprise-level internal developer portal built on the Backstage developer portals framework.
- Trusted Profile Analyzer, providing management of an organization’s software bill of materials, vulnerability exploitability exchanges (VEX), and common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE).
- Trusted Artifact Signer, with production-ready deployment of the Sigstore project for cryptographic signing and verification for software artifacts such as container images and binaries.
Red Hat Advanced Developer Suite also integrates with Red Hat OpenShift Pipelines, Red Hat OpenShift GitOps, and other leading CI/CD solutions. Users can leverage Podman Desktop for local container management and Red Hat IDE Plugins for Red Hat ecosystem integrations inside popular IDEs. Additionally, Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces provide developers with a cloud development environment that accelerates onboarding, Red Hat said.
