What is OpenShift Commons?
Commons builds connections and collaboration across OpenShift communities, projects, and stakeholders. In doing so we’ll enable the success of customers, users, partners, and contributors as we deepen our knowledge and experiences together.
Our goals go beyond code contributions. Commons is a place for companies using OpenShift to accelerate its success and adoption. To do this we’ll act as resources for each other, share best practices and provide a forum for peer-to-peer communication.

Application Migration with Container-native virtualization

More and more frequently, modern applications are choosing a container-first development and deployment paradigm built on the foundation of Kubernetes. However, not all applications are fully modernized and containerized micro services. Many applications are a hybrid of architectures and technology which have existed for years, even decades. This can add complexity, both to the application architecture and management overhead, when a container-based, cloud-native application component needs to access existing functionality which is virtual machine based. 
Container-native virtualization provides flexibility during the modernization process so that you can focus on the most critical aspects first, while still being able to access, manage, and consume VM-based aspects using the new Kubernetes-centric tools. Based on the KubeVirt project, recently accepted by the CNCF, Container-native virtualization manages both virtual machines and containers through a single control plane saving time, resources, and budget. Red Hat Container-native virtualization delivers KubeVirt functionality directly to OpenShift customers and helps to manage both virtual machines and OpenShift deployments from a single platform. This single platform simplifies the management of virtual machines and containers with a common Kubernetes interface that standardizes orchestration, networking, and storage management while also supporting the long term move to containers. 
What does this mean for the developer? Regardless of where your company is in their digital transformation, you have a platform to develop on. Many legacy applications find it too complex or expensive to move to containers. Container-native virtualization allows you to continue using existing virtual machines without the overhead. And because Container-native virtualization is Kubernetes-native you keep the structure of your existing virtual machines on a platform that takes advantage of all things Kubernetes. 
If you have an application built on .NET and Windows Server 2012 R2, as an example, but you’re ready to start bringing Kubernetes into the equation, Container-native virtualization may be a path to do so. In this scenario legacy applications built on .NET continue to live on in its original state, without change. Little effort is needed to migrate this workload in its existing virtual machine to Container-native virtualization. Meanwhile, those applications that are ready to start development in a Kubernetes-native state can do so. Typically, this would cause major complexities, but with Container-native virtualization both environments can be managed through a single management pane without compromising their unique architectures. Leveraging Container-native virtualization minimizes management time and resources and allows your application to live under its current requirements while delivering flexibility for future technology upgrades. 
To get a sample of KubeVirt and Red Hat Container-native virtualization, visit us next week at KubeCon in booth #D1 and join us for the KubeVirt Intro and Deep Dive sessions.

How AI can supercharge content understanding for businesses

Organizations face challenges when it comes to extracting insights, finding meaning, and uncovering new opportunities in the vast troves of content at their disposal. In fact, 82 percent of organizations surveyed in the latest Harvard Business Review (HBR) Analytic Services report say that exploring and understanding their content in a timely manner is a significant challenge. This is exacerbated because content is not only spread over multiple systems but also in multiple formats such as PDF, JPEG, spreadsheets, and audio files.

The first wave of artificial intelligence (AI) was designed for narrow applications, training a single model to address a specific task such as handwriting recognition. What’s been challenging, however, is that these models individually can’t capture all the different attributes hidden in various types of content. This means developers must painfully stitch together disparate components to fully understand their content.

Instead, organizations need a solution that spans vision, speech, and language to fully unlock insights from all content types. We are heavily investing in this new category of AI, called knowledge mining, to enable organizations to maximize the value of their content.

Knowledge mining with Azure Cognitive Search

Organizations can take advantage of knowledge mining today with Azure Cognitive Search. Organizations can now easily glean insights from all their content through web applications, bots, and Power BI visualizations. With Azure Cognitive Search, organizations can not only benefit from the industry’s most comprehensive domain-specific models but also integrate their own custom models. What used to take months to accomplish can be realized in mere hours without needing data science expertise.

Delivering real business impact

The same Harvard Business Review report describes how our customers across industries are benefiting from knowledge mining in ways that were previously unimaginable.

 Financial Services: “The return on investment (ROI) for knowledge mining at a small fund with one or two analysts is 30 percent to 58 percent. For much larger funds, with 50 or more analysts, it is over 500 percent.”—Subra Bose, CEO of Financial Fabric.
 Healthcare: “A reliable knowledge mining platform can drive roughly a third of the costs out of the medical claims process.” —Ram Swaminathan, CEO at BUDDI Health.
 Manufacturing: “Unlocking this potential will significantly change the way we do business with our customers and how we service their equipment.” —Chris van Ravenswaay, global business solutions manager for Howden.
 Legal: “AI tells you what is inside the contract. It also tells you what the relationship of the contract is with the outside world.” —Monish Darda, CTO of Icertis.

And we’re just getting started. You can expect even deeper integration and more great knowledge mining experiences built with Azure Cognitive Search as we continue this journey. I encourage you to take a look at Harvard Business Review’s survey and findings and hear their perspective on the landscape of knowledge mining.
