Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8

This talk will introduce many of the new features available in the
recently-released Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8. Patrick will
cover a multitude of topics including Application Streams, Image
Builder, in-place upgrade tool, Insights, container tools (featuring the all-new Universal Base Image), new security features, Ansible-powered System Roles, the web console, and the virtual data optimizer.

The talk will provide an overview of each of these features, with a
focus on what we mean when we say that Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8
provides a "faster time to 'Hello World'" for your environment.

There will be plenty of time for questions!
