Abstract
Chapter 1. About Red Hat Developer Hub (RHDH)
Red Hat Developer Hub is all about making your development process smoother and more efficient. It unifies all the tools and resources your team needs into one platform, helping you collaborate better and get your applications from code to deployment faster.
1.1. Why use Red Hat Developer Hub?
- Boost developer productivity: Say goodbye to common organizational hiccups. With clear guidelines and automated processes your team can focus on what they do best - writing great code.
- Unified dashboard: Access everything in one place - from Git repositories and CI/CD pipelines to issue tracking, monitoring, and documentation. With over 150 plugins, it’s all curated to fit your company’s best practices.
- Built in best practices: Use software templates that encode your organization’s standards, making tasks like creating new applications or setting up CI/CD pipelines a breeze.
- Easy onboarding: New developers can get up to speed quickly, thanks to standardized tools and processes that reduce the learning curve.
- Robust security and access control: Manage rules and permissions effectively with enterprise-grade role based access control (RBAC), keeping your projects secure.
- Scalable documentation: Keep your code and documentation together in the same repository, so everything stays in sync without relying on separate systems.
1.2. Elevate your development with secure templates
If you have the Red Hat Trusted Application Pipeline (RHTAP) installed, Red Hat Developer Hub (RHDH) becomes even more powerful. RHTAP provides additional secure software templates that you can use right within RHDH. These templates help you integrate advanced security measures into your development process seamlessly, without adding complexity.
- Ready-to-use secure templates: Jumpstart your projects with templates that incorporate industry-leading security practices. RHTAP ensures that every line of code contributes to a fortress of security significantly enhancing early vulnerability detection and mitigation.
- Seamless integration: The secure templates from RHTAP slide right into your existing workflows, so there’s no extra work for your team. By aligning with Supply-chain Levels for Software Artifacts (SLSA) Level 3 RHTAP’s pioneering secure CI/CD framework upholds the highest standards in software development.
- Focus on innovation: With security built into your templates, RHTAP helps you adopt a DevSecOps culture. This allows your developers to concentrate on building great features without getting bogged down by security setups.
RHTAP integrates Red Hat Trusted Artifact Signer (RHTAS) for code integrity, Red hat Trusted Profile Analyzer (RHTPA) for automated SBOM creation, and Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security (RHACS) for proactive vulnerability scanning, to strengthen your security posture with advanced tools, offering a robust defense against security threats throughout the development lifecycle.
1.2.1. Transform your development process
By bringing everything together in one place, Red Hat Developer Hub helps your team work more effectively and deliver better software. And if you are looking to add an extra layer of security the secure templates from Red Hat Trusted Application Pipeline are there to enhance your workflow throughout the software development lifecycle.
