Create a product

To lay the foundation for adding necessary validation components, create a product listing. This listing provides essential marketing and technical information to showcase your product’s advantages to potential customers.

Before you begin

  • Verify the functionality of your product on the target Red Hat platform. If running your product on the targeted Red Hat platform results in a substandard experience then you must resolve the issues before validation.
  • Prepare comprehensive details about your product documentation, internal testing, and the Red Hat environment used for testing.
Note

Red Hat does not test the partner’s product, its functionality, or its performance on the chosen platform. All aspects of product quality assurance remain the partner’s sole responsibility.

Red Hat recommends completing all the optional fields in the listing tabs for a comprehensive product listing. More information helps mutual customers make informed choices.

Red Hat suggests that you collaborate with your product manager, marketing representative, or other product experts when entering product listing information.

Note

Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are mandatory.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Red Hat Partner Connect Portal.

  4. From the Listing and certification tab click Manage products.
