Based on open source principles of transparency, participation, and collaboration, "open management" challenges conventional business ideas about what companies are, how they run, and how they make money. This book provides the blueprint for putting it into practice in your own firm. He covers challenges that have been missing from the conversation to date, among them: how to scale engagement; how to have healthy debates that net progress; and how to attract and keep the "Social Generation" of workers. Through a mix of vibrant stories, candid lessons, and tested processes, Whitehurst shows how Red Hat has blown the traditional operating model to pieces by emerging out of a pure bottom up culture and learning how to execute it at scale. And he explains what other companies are, and need to be doing to bring this open style into all facets of the organization.

“Spicy” women’s fiction from a New York Times bestseller is “an engaging ode to the lasting bonds of southern sisterhood and life-begins-at-50 optimism” (Kirkus Reviews). Georgia, SuSu, Teeny, Linda and Diane have been friends for more than thirty years. But when Pru Bonner, black sheep of the group, falls off the wagon so hard it shakes their world, “the girls” stage a hilarious kidnapping in Vegas to help their childhood friend clean up her act. As the women confront their pasts along with their hazardous adventure, they discover surprising strength in themselves and their friendships. Laughter is spiced with secrets, surprises, and pitfalls aplenty, including a midlife pregnancy test, the perils of internet dating, an all-expense-paid plastic surgery cruise, and a surprise celebration that proves it’s never too late for love. As in The Red Hat Club, these irrepressible heroines face the challenges of friendship in sickness and in health, with heart and indomitable humor. So join The Red Hats and remember that age is all in your head, calories should always be in chewable form (Diet Coke with chocolate éclairs!), and that when all else fails, your Red Hats will see you through. “The book’s fun lies not in guessing how things turn out but in Smith’s warm, chatty style.” —Publishers Weekly “Hitting the road with Smith’s lovable ladies is a riotous, raucous, roller-coaster adventure.” —Booklist Praise for The Red Hat Club “A tribute to women who emerged victorious through divorce, menopause, spreading waistlines, and other tribulations.” —Chicago Tribune “A gossipy, engaging read, full of witty Southern characters readers will be unable to resist the urge to cheer on.” —Florida Times-Union

The OpenShift Security Guide was created to help those in cloud infrastructure and security engineering roles address the many security challenges facing them. Cloud security is complex, and Red Hat understands that users need more than just guidance in technical system configurations. The authors have identified approaches that aid in the triaging of security trade-offs and risk, policy enforcement, reporting, and the validation of system configuration. Cloud infrastructure and security engineering roles are central to establishing and preserving security postures. It is the book's intent to support these roles by providing the proper mixture of conceptual, organizational, and technical guidance, thereby increasing the security vigilance and effectiveness of those with such responsibilities. For the cloud security auditor, whether in an internal role or as a third-party assessment organization, this book intends to provide the technical guidance needed to verify, validate, and enforce security controls. For technology professionals charged with security policy management, this book should offer insight into related organizational policy, functional testing, and data stewardship tasks while augmenting knowledge in these areas. While the book speaks to OpenShift from a holistic infrastructure perspective, it does cover areas that application developers and reliability engineers may find valuable. With the ever evolving trends in container-based microservices, baking security into the continuous integration and delivery pipelines is a fundamental requirement. Build and runtime security features are discussed, and advantages of a secure container baseline image are covered as well. Readers are not expected to have expert-level knowledge of core OpenShift concepts. However, basic knowledge of Linux, Containers, and Kubernetes from a user or administrative perspective will certainly be useful, especially when reading through some of the technical implementation described in the chapters.
