Red Hat Satellite
Red Hat Satellite 6.17 is the robust infrastructure management platform that provides centralized control over your Red Hat environments across hybrid clouds, disconnected networks, and edge deployments. It simplifies content, patch, provisioning, and configuration management for your Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems.
Control, Security, and Operations at Scale
Red Hat Satellite 6.17 is an integrated solution for managing the entire lifecycle of your Red Hat infrastructure. It allows you to synchronize content from Red Hat's Content Delivery Network (CDN) and your custom sources, organize it, and distribute it to your managed systems, even in disconnected or widely dispersed environments using Satellite Capsule Servers.
Reduced Operational Overhead: Automate the entire lifecycle of your RHEL systems, from provisioning to patching and compliance, significantly lowering manual effort and operational costs.
Enhanced Security Posture: Ensure systems are consistently patched, configured securely, and compliant with regulatory standards, minimizing vulnerability exposure.
Consistency Across Environments: Maintain uniform configurations and content delivery across diverse footprints, including on-premises, cloud, and air-gapped locations.
Accelerated Deployment & Scalability: Rapidly provision and update thousands of systems, adapting quickly to evolving business demands without compromising control.
Mitigated Risk: Proactively identify and remediate potential issues with integrated Red Hat Insights capabilities, improving system availability and stability.
RHEL Lifecycle Management
Content Management: Centralized repository for Red Hat content (RPMs, ISOs) and custom content. Organize content into Content Views and promote them through Lifecycle Environments (e.g., Development, QA, Production).
Patch Management: Automate the identification and deployment of security errata, bug fixes, and enhancements across your RHEL fleet.
Provisioning: Automate bare-metal, virtual, and cloud-based RHEL system provisioning using integrated services like PXE, Kickstart, DNS, and DHCP.
Configuration Management: Use Puppet and Ansible integrations to ensure systems adhere to desired configurations and policies. Includes enhanced auditing for Ansible role changes.
Remote Execution: Securely execute commands and Ansible Playbooks on managed hosts directly from the Satellite web UI.
Subscription Management: Track and manage Red Hat subscriptions across your environment, ensuring compliance and optimized usage.
Satellite Capsule Servers: Extend Satellite's capabilities to remote locations, providing localized content caching, provisioning services, and reducing network bandwidth consumption.
