Red Hat Device Edge is now available on NVIDIA Jetson Orin, aligning with the release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.8. With this release, Red Hat and NVIDIA are collaborating to activate edge AI use cases, whether for advanced robotics and autonomous drone applications or running lightweight AI apps in industrial settings, with a standardized, enterprise-ready foundation, delivered through a pre-built bootable container image that accelerates time to deployment.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) running on the NVIDIA Jetpack stack for NVIDIA Jetson Orin includes:

  • Enterprise-Grade Support for NVIDIA Jetson Orin: RHEL helps organizations rapidly identify and mitigate Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) with trusted software, automation, and built-in protections. Organizations can reduce the security risk window with Red Hat Lightspeed, included with a RHEL subscription, by getting prompt notifications and remediations for newly discovered threats. Red Hat Lightspeed leverages deep threat intelligence to help organizations understand the most critical CVEs posing a threat to their environment.

  • Unified Core-To-Edge Tooling: Red Hat Device Edge combines RHEL with Red Hat’s supported distribution of MicroShift and Red Hat Edge Manager. Now, users can leverage the same familiar tools and processes to manage remote NVIDIA Jetson Orin devices.

The NVIDIA Jetson Orin family, including the Orin Nano, Orin NX, and AGX Orin series, provides a range of scalable solutions for AI inferencing in lightweight, low-power form factors. By bringing Red Hat Device Edge to these devices, developers can write applications once and deploy them on a broad range of industry-leading computing architectures and environments, offering control over data and low-latency responses without needing to transmit sensitive data back to a central cloud.
