On 29 June 2023, Nokia and Red Hat announced a partnership that will see Red Hat serving as the primary (though not exclusive) cloud infrastructure supplier of Nokia's core network functions, while Nokia will cease its own container-as-a-service (CaaS) and virtual infrastructure management (VIM) efforts.
