It’s become clear to many that Red Hat’s recent missteps with CentOS and the availability of RHEL source code indicate that it’s fallen from its respected place as “the open organization.” SUSE seems to be poised to benefit from Red Hat’s errors. We connect the dots.
Rocky Linux and possibly Alamalinux are the future if openSUSE is anything to go by
Rocky doesn’t support the range or products needed to be “the” enterprise suite.
Heck you could even go Liberty Linux and have the same bins as Rock but support under SUSE, plus k8s, plus update management, plus security tools, plus k8s multi cluster, plus some ai thing to convince investors you are doing something with it.
Like, and all that’s great, but honestly still not “enough” all under one roof for some enterprise costumers who are just looking to turn a problem into an expense.
Alma has been good for me the past year or so
I mean use Rocky all the time. Its good for me as a Dev and engineer. Its just not what I would spend a lot of time trying to convince management to spend money on for support and such.
Context ? I’m out of the loop.
OpenSUSE isn’t enterprise friendly for a many reasons. It lacks the features of rhel like systems and the simplicity of Debian. It somehow manages to be more complex and confusing than both
Isn’t SLE targeted towards enterprise anyways?
I’m by no means an expert, but I don’t recognize this. Would you be so kind to elaborate?
wow you are anti opensuse bullshit is so tiresome, first time I am thinking about blocking someone on lemmy, congrats.
Chill out you don’t need to take it personally. I just wouldn’t use based on my experience
Am I living under a rock? because I’ve never heard of Rocky and Almalinux lol
Two direct continuations of CentOS aiming for full RHEL compatibility
Yes. Is it moist under there?
They are enterprise server oriented
If you care at all about Red Hat Enterprise Linux or CentOS, yes. See the Dec 2020 announcement. https://blog.centos.org/2020/12/future-is-centos-stream/
