In this interview from the RAISE Summit 2025, Matt Hicks, chief executive officer at Red Hat, joins theCUBE’s John Furrier to discuss how open source and enterprise AI are converging to reshape infrastructure. Speaking live from Paris, Hicks explains Red Hat’s mission to drive down token costs with smaller, more efficient models, making large-scale agentic workloads economically viable for organizations of every size. The conversation dives into Red Hat’s latest releases: RHEL for business developers, the Red Hat Inference Server built on VLLM, RHEL AI and a slate of new collaborations with AMD, NVIDIA and top cloud providers. Hicks shares how the inference layer is engineered to push GPU utilisation toward 100 percent, letting teams run any open source model on any accelerator. He and Furrier also explore hybrid AI strategies, sovereign cloud priorities and why RHEL-10’s immutable image mode is key for reliable, large-fleet operations. Lookin …...more

Looking ahead, Hicks highlights how early wins with single-call workloads open the door to multi-step reasoning and full agentic systems, setting the foundation for an AI-ready enterprise.
