Across industries and business sectors, senior leadership has to execute at an ever-increasing pace, and today’s technology decisions must balance short-term risk with long-term gains. Join host Stu Miniman as he leads insightful and candid discussions with a broad spectrum of experts, executives, and decision-makers on diverse and hot technology topics.
In this episode of In the Clouds, host Stu Miniman sits down with Marc Curry, Distinguished Product Manager for OpenShift at Red Hat, for a deep dive into what’s new and what’s next in OpenShift 4.20 — and how Red Hat is advancing the networking and scalability foundations for hybrid and cloud-native platforms.
Marc brings over two decades of experience at Red Hat, spanning telecommunications, networking performance, and open-source architecture. As part of the Hybrid Platform Business Unit, he leads the vision for OpenShift’s networking stack — ensuring it delivers on performance, reliability, and scalability across clouds, datacenters, and edge deployments.
This episode comes just as OpenShift 4.20 hits General Availability (GA) on October 21, with more updates expected at KubeCon North America in November. Stu and Marc will unpack what this release means for the community and enterprises alike — especially in the era of cloud-native networking and edge computing.
They’ll explore:
– What’s new in OpenShift 4.20 — including BGP for UDN (on-prem) GA, Network Observability updates, BlueField 3 DPU (TP), and the latest on Red Hat Connectivity Link
– How OpenShift is evolving, through AI and the networking layer
– Networking at scale — insights into the architecture that supports multi-cluster, hybrid, and distributed environments
– What to expect at KubeCon North America, and how Red Hat is shaping the next wave of cloud-native networking
Marc will also share lessons from his hands-on work with telecom operators and the open-source community — giving viewers a look into how Red Hat’s open hybrid approach continues to evolve for mission-critical workloads.
