Steel City Solutions Is Now an Official Red Hat Partner

We are proud to share some big news today: Steel City Solutions is now an official Red Hat partner.

For a Pueblo-based DevOps and infrastructure consultancy serving clients throughout Colorado and across the United States, this is a real milestone. Red Hat is the company behind some of the most important open source infrastructure in the world, and partnering with them strengthens our ability to deliver that ecosystem to organizations throughout Colorado and across the country.

Why this matters

Most people know Red Hat as the company behind enterprise Linux, but the partnership reaches further than that. It connects us more deeply to the platforms we already build on every day:

• Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). The operating system that runs a huge share of the world's production servers. Stable, secure, supported, and the foundation for a lot of the systems we manage.
• Ansible. The automation engine we lean on to configure, deploy, and maintain infrastructure without the manual toil. If you have ever wondered how a small team keeps a lot of servers consistent and patched, this is a big part of the answer.
• OpenShift. Red Hat's enterprise Kubernetes application platform for teams that need to build, deploy, and scale applications reliably.

We have spent more than a decade designing, automating, supporting, and troubleshooting production systems built on these technologies. Becoming an official partner is the formal version of work we have been doing all along.

Steel City Solutions specializes in Linux infrastructure, automation, GitLab, container platforms, and platform engineering for organizations that need enterprise reliability without building a large internal operations team. Whether we are helping a manufacturer modernize aging systems, supporting a financial institution with secure infrastructure, or automating repetitive operational work, our focus remains the same: reducing risk, improving reliability, and helping teams move faster.

Organizations looking for Red Hat, Ansible, OpenShift, GitLab, Linux, or infrastructure automation consulting often end up working with firms hundreds or thousands of miles away. While we are proudly based in Pueblo, Colorado, we support organizations throughout Colorado and nationwide with practical engineering expertise, responsive communication, and solutions designed for long-term maintainability.

What it means for our clients

Being a Red Hat partner is not a logo we hang on the wall. It changes what we can deliver:

• Access to Red Hat partner resources, training, technical enablement, and ecosystem knowledge that help us stay current on best practices and deliver better outcomes for our clients.
• Better answers, faster. When a question goes beyond what is in the docs, we are closer to the source. Our team has spent years working with Red Hat technologies in enterprise and regulated environments where reliability, security, and operational discipline are not optional. That experience shapes how we design, automate, and support infrastructure for every client engagement.
• Enterprise-grade infrastructure, right-sized. The same Linux, automation, and container tooling that runs Fortune 500 data centers, applied at the scale your business actually needs, without the enterprise overhead.

That last point is the one we care about most. Small and mid-sized teams should not have to choose between cheap-and-fragile and expensive-and-overbuilt. The Red Hat ecosystem lets us land in the right spot: solid, supportable infrastructure that fits your team and your budget.

Same mission, bigger toolkit

None of this changes who we are or where we are. We are still a Pueblo, Colorado company, still doing the unglamorous work of making systems reliable for teams that cannot afford downtime or wasted spend, whether they are down the street or across the country.

What changes is the depth of what we can bring to the table. If you are running Linux servers, wrestling with manual infrastructure, thinking about containers, or just trying to make your systems more reliable without hiring a whole platform team, this partnership is good news for you.

Whether you need help with Linux administration, infrastructure automation, GitLab, OpenShift, container platforms, or modernizing an aging environment, we would be happy to discuss your goals and determine whether we are the right fit. Reach out anytime.

Steel City Solutions provides Red Hat, Linux, Ansible, OpenShift, GitLab, container platforms, and infrastructure automation consulting services throughout Colorado and nationwide.

The first call is always free, always thirty minutes, and always with the person who will actually be doing the work.

Proud to be official. More to come.
