💡 Why did SiriusXM move to Portworx and Red Hat OpenShift? It came down to two things: lower TCO and greater flexibility. In this clip from theCUBE, Nate Mason, Director of Platform Operations at SiriusXM, shares how the team built a scalable, hybrid cloud platform that spans on-prem, cloud, and edge - without locking themselves into costly legacy infrastructure. 🎯 The result? A fully integrated architecture that just fits. 🎥 Watch the story: Why TCO and Flexibility Drove SiriusXM’s Move to Portworx + Red Hat https://lnkd.in/e_4RtDpC #Portworx #RedHatOpenShift #SiriusXM #HybridCloud #CloudNative #DevOps #Infrastructure #Kubernetes #TCO

Native launches today with $42M to solve a problem every multi-cloud enterprise knows well. While cloud providers offer deep security controls, applying them consistently at scale remains a massive operational hurdle. Amit Megiddo, Gal Ordo, and Eyal Faingold are changing that by moving the industry beyond reactive detection toward native, enforceable architecture. We are proud to back this team alongside Ballistic Ventures, General Catalyst, and Merlin Ventures. We are also honored to welcome Phil Venables, former CISO of Google Cloud and a true pioneer in the space, to the board as Native establishes a new standard for the cloud security control plane. https://hubs.la/Q046V35q0
