TOPIC: RIP CentOS? Now what? By David Gilpin
Oracle Linux, tracking RHEL for more than 15 years
On 12/31/2021 IBM/Red Hat end-of-lifed CentOS 8. CentOS has historically
been a downstream rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). CentOS
Stream 8 is designated an upstream (development) branch of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux - a continual Beta release.
Oracle Linux has been a tracking release of RHEL since 2006. This
presentation will review the Oracle Linux operating environment and how
it is a great CentOS alternative. We will also cover Oracle's involvement
and commitment to Open Source software.
