Yes we do!

There are quite a few ways you can do it. Using Ansible Automation 
Platform (via playbooks) or/and Satellite 
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4hBVgaaBo4&list=PLfQqjZzqDMuVVQ51OzSoiHlfwNApVoIFf&index=2)

We support a lot of open source projects (not complete list as I keep 
finding out! https://redhatofficial.github.io/#!/main) which feed into 
our commercial offerings and vice versa.

Product = open source projects

AAP = Ansible/awx

Satellite = Foreman/spacewalk

Kind Regards
