TOPIC: SuSE Liberty, Rancher, and Harvester
By Michael Carrington
What's New, and more!
CentOS was one of the most acclaimed distros for servers, and one that
many companies adopted, a binary fork of RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux)
from Red Hat (now owned by IBM), maintained by the community and free.
But nevertheless, in an unexpected turn (by RedHat), everything was
turned upside down, leaving a large gap that is now to be filled.
(The CentOS that we knew is no more.) Liberty Linux from SuSE, is
another of the alternatives that join projects like AlmaLinux, Rocky
Linux, etc., etc.
SuSE Liberty Linux as a "replacement" for CentOS.
SuSE Liberty Linux is a product that is being developed by SuSE with its
own Open Build Service tool, from the binary packages Official Red Hat
RPMs (SRPMs). In the case of the kernel, the RHEL kernel will not be
used, rather it is based on the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES)
kernel, but compiled using a configuration to maintain compatibility
for RHEL/CentOS.
SuSE Rancher is a container management platform that provides full
management of all your Kubernetes distributions, whether you're managing
one or one ... SuSE Rancher addresses the needs of DevOps teams deploying
apps.
SuSE Rancher differs from Kubernetes:
a) Kubernetes is a technology for managing containers organized under
a cluster of virtual or physical machines.
b) Rancher is a technology for managing Kubernetes clusters en masse.
SuSE Harvester is an Open, interoperable hyperconverged infrastructure
(HCI).
Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) doesn't need to be expensive or
complex and with Harvester it's not. Harvester presents organizations
with a modern HCI solution that is feature-full and purpose built for
cloud-native environments. Consolidate your virtual machine workloads
and Kubernetes clusters with Harvester.
Designed by the SuSE Rancher engineering team, Harvester is built on
Kubernetes and utilizes the latest cloud-native solutions.
Harvester has two modes of operation:
1. HCI, where it can attach to another cluster as a VM hosting node or
2. a Helm application deployed into an existing Kubernetes cluster.
