Expanso Joins the Red Hat Partner Network: Edge-Native Processing Comes to OpenShift

We’re thrilled to announce that Expanso has joined the Red Hat Partner Network, bringing our edge-native data processing platform directly into the OpenShift ecosystem.

The Challenge

Traditional data processing moves everything to the cloud—generating massive bandwidth costs and latency issues. A telecom provider processing 1TB monthly through cloud analytics can spend $750+ in ingestion and compute fees. Multiply that across thousands of edge sites, and costs explode while critical alerts arrive minutes too late.

The Solution

Expanso Edge flips the model: instead of moving data to processing, we move processing to data. Our certified container platform runs directly on OpenShift clusters at edge locations—Single Node OpenShift deployments, regional clusters, or hybrid environments.

Real impact: One Expanso pipeline replaces multiple collection agents while using just 50MB RAM and <1% CPU. The same 1TB becomes a structured report (99.9% reduction in data egress). Result: $750 monthly costs drop to $75-150 with sub-second alerting.

Red Hat Certified Products

Expanso Edge is now certified and available through the Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog:

Built on Red Hat Universal Base Image 9 with multi-architecture support (AMD64/ARM64), certified for OpenShift 4.12-4.20 and RHEL 9.0-10.1.

OpenShift Integration

  • Certified Operator: Deploy through familiar OpenShift workflows
  • GitOps Compatible: Manage configurations through ArgoCD
  • Enterprise Security: Native support for security contexts and network policies
  • Observability: Pre-filters data before it hits Prometheus/Grafana, reducing costs

Next Steps

Explore certified products in the Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog or contact our enterprise team to get started.

The edge-first future starts with your next OpenShift deployment.


Expanso provides edge-native data processing platforms for enterprises and telecommunications providers. Our OpenShift-certified solutions enable analytics and AI workloads to run where data lives, reducing costs by 50-70% while improving compliance and latency. Learn more at expanso.io.
