Red Hat ☛ Retrieval-augmented generation with Llama Stack and Python
With the recent release of Llama Stack earlier this year, we decided to look at how to implement key aspects of an Hey Hi (AI) application with Python and Llama Stack. This post covers retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
Catch up on the rest of our series exploring how to use large language models with Python and Llama Stack:

Red Hat ☛ Getting started with managed clusters migration
As of Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management 2.13, the multicluster global hub operator has a new developer preview feature: Managed cluster migration. This is especially useful when you're migrating managed clusters, which you might consider doing in any of these scenarios:

Red Hat ☛ Introducing incident detection in Red Bait Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes 2.14
Incident detection groups the cascade of related alerts that occur during system issues (alert storms) into manageable incidents. This helps teams identify root causes more effectively and prioritize critical problems by providing a color-coded timeline and categorizing alerts by severity and affected components, rather than getting overwhelmed by individual notifications.

Red Hat ☛ How to deploy multiple OpenStack environments on OpenShift
The deployment architecture of Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift is a modern way to set up an OpenStack Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) environment. This new architecture brings novel capabilities and opportunities. One of those new capabilities is our distributed control plane services, running in pods. More importantly, these services consume a fraction of the resources the monolithic control plane did in previous versions.

Fedora Project ☛ Fedora Community Blog: Fedora DEI Outreachy Intern Recap: July Highlights and Learnings
July is already behind us – time really flies when you’re learning and growing! I’m happy to share what I’ve been up to this month as a Fedora DEI Outreachy intern.
To be honest, I feel like I’m learning more and more about open source every week. This month was a mix of video editing, working on event checklists, helping with fun Fedora activities, and doing prep work for community outreach.

Peter Robinson: Building rust UEFI apps on Fedora
As everyone probably knows rust is considered a great language for secure programming and hence a lot of people are looking at it for everything from low level firmware to GPU drivers. In a similar vein it can already be to build UEFI applications.
Upstream in U-Boot we’ve been adding support for UEFI HTTP and HTTPs Boot and it’s now stable enough I am looking to enable this in Fedora. While I was testing the features on various bits of hardware I wanted a small UEFI app I could pull across a network quickly and easily from a web server for testing devices.
Of course adding in display testing as well would be nice…. so enter UEFI nyan cat for a bit of fun!

Logikal Solutions ☛ Flatpaks are Magically Bloated in Size
Use of Agile instead of actual Software Engineering.
Automated test scripts that often test nothing.
Updates force fed to computers.
Users have a working system when they go to bed and find something busted the next day -
Red Hat Official ☛ Streamlined migration: updating Ansible Automation Platform workflows to work with Terraform Enterprise and HCP Terraform
This new supported migration process allows you to preserve your investment in existing processes while unlocking new capabilities with Terraform Enterprise or HCP Terraform. Your current playbooks will require only minimal changes to accommodate your migrated Terraform configurations, allowing you to use your existing Terraform integration, already supported by the Ansible Automation Platform collection, and gain access to features such as enhanced security tooling, compliance frameworks, and scalable remote execution in Terraform Enterprise and HCP Terraform.

Red Hat Official ☛ Introducing OpenShift Service Mesh 3.1
This is the first minor release following Red Hat OpenShift Service Mesh 3.0, a major update to converge OpenShift Service Mesh with the community Istio project, with installation and management using the Sail operator. This change helps ensure that OpenShift Service Mesh can offer the latest stable Istio features with Red Hat support.

Red Hat Official ☛ Hope, crash, iterate: One PM’s journey to make enterprise library content searchable, findable, and useful - Part 2
As we expanded into messy, dense, unstructured go-to-market content, the cracks showed fast. Retrieval quality slipped. Feedback loops stalled. Our assumptions about the bot’s capabilities, the flexibility of its architecture, and how to tune for relevance began to fall apart.
