Triangle Technology Services has been named Red Hat Partner of the Year 2026.
Stefano Vargiu, senior software engineer at Triangle, collected the award on behalf of the team at Red Hat Partner Day. The message that came with the award was particularly important to us. Robbie Byrne, Country Manager, Ireland at Red Hat, said:
“At Red Hat we review ourselves not just on what was achieved, but more importantly, how it was achieved. We felt that you have really leaned into our partnership and earned this much coveted award.”
That distinction between what and how gets to something important about technology partnerships. Their value is built over time, through technical investment, collaboration and the work that happens between individual projects.
What the Red Hat partnership brings to our work
Triangle is a Red Hat Advanced Partner, working with Red Hat technologies across operating systems, infrastructure as code and platform orchestration. Our work in these areas includes Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat Ansible and Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform.
Enterprise environments rarely depend on one platform or one technology provider, and Red Hat rarely arrives on its own. New capabilities need to integrate with the infrastructure an organisation already depends on, from compute and storage to virtualisation, security, monitoring and recovery. Automation has to be trusted enough to run against production systems.
That is where Triangle’s broader infrastructure expertise and our relationship with Red Hat come together. We help clients introduce new technology, automate more of their infrastructure and evolve complex environments while maintaining resilience, interoperability and operational control.
Close relationships with our technology partners are important to that work. They give our teams access to product knowledge and expertise that can be brought into architecture, implementation and ongoing client delivery.
Red Hat within Triangle’s wider technology ecosystem
There is another reason this award has particular significance for Triangle. Our relationship with IBM goes back more than two decades and remains an important part of our enterprise infrastructure expertise today. Red Hat became part of IBM in 2019, bringing together two technology ecosystems that Triangle works with across modern enterprise environments. The Red Hat award adds a new chapter to that longer technology story and to Triangle’s relationship with Red Hat.
Thank you to the Red Hat team for the recognition, and to the people across Triangle whose technical work and commitment to the partnership have contributed to it.
