Compiler is an original podcast from Red Hat where we ask people in tech about a variety of topics—some big, others small, and a few strange. Then, we bring their answers back to you, dissecting topics like open source, hackathons, DevOps, hiring, and so much more.

It’s the things you’ve always wanted to know about what moves tech forward, straight from the people who know it best.
