St. Louis Linux Users Group
RIP CentOS… Now what?
Presented By: David Gilpin
On 12/31/2021 IBM/Red Hat end-of-lifed CentOS 8. CentOS has historically been a downstream rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. 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.
