Red Hat has announced the business model and pricing plans for its OpenShift Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering to provide support to companies in application development and deployment. Available as a free service since May 2011, OpenShift PaaS delivers to developers a cloud application platform with a choice of programming languages, frameworks and application lifecycle tools to build their applications.

Brian Stevens, CTO & VP, Worldwide Engineering, Red Hat said, “Over the past year since we debuted OpenShift, we’ve seen the power of an open, flexible PaaS for developers. We’ve made major progress over this year with the addition of new programming languages, the release of the open source project OpenShift Origin and plans for our enterprise PaaS offering. Building on this strong momentum, introducing our model and plans for OpenShift with enterprise-grade support from Red Hat is a huge step forward for Red Hat and developers who are looking to take an open hybrid approach to the cloud.”
