New #FedoraPodcast is out, and this one is for everyone who has typed dnf install epel-release and never really stopped to think about what they just turned on.

We sat down with Carl George, the #EPEL Team Lead at #RedHat, to get into what it actually is. We talked through the golden rule, what's changing for EPEL 11, and how the project is governed.

If you run #EnterpriseLinux, EPEL is worth understanding!

New episode of the Fedora Podcast is up: What is EPEL?

Noah and Eric sit down with Carl George @carlwgeorge who leads the EPEL team at Red Hat, to cover what EPEL actually is, the golden rule behind its reputation, and the changes he's proposing for EPEL 11. If you run enterprise Linux, this one's for you.

#SonicDE third-party packages are now available for #EnterpriseLinux 10-based distributions. They've already been tested on #AlmaLinux and #RHEL and will be on Oracle Linux and Rocky Linux too. Please see https://sonicde-fedora-el.github.io for how to get them.
Big thank you, @anders!

🛡️⚡ IBM aduce puterea sistemelor Mainframe în centrele de date standard: Lansarea Compact z17 și LinuxONE 5IBM a anunțat oficial extinderea portofoliului său de sisteme de calcul de înaltă performanță prin lansarea noilor configurații IBM Compact z17 și IBM LinuxONE 5. Aceste noi versiuni aduc tehnologia de securitate, reziliență și procesare brută specifică sistemelor de tip mainframe direct în rack-urile standard de $19\text{ inchi}$ folosite în centrele de date moderne, eliminând necesitatea unor infrastructure speciale de răcire sau alimentare.Această mutare strategică este concepută pentru a permite companiilor de toate dimensiunile, nu doar marilor corporații bancare, să ruleze aplicații critice, soluții cloud hibride și procese complexe de Inteligență Artificială într-un format compact și extrem de eficient.Iată principalele noutăți și specificații tehnice ale noilor sisteme IBM:🔹 Design standardizat pentru rack-uri de 19 inchi:Cea mai mare inovație a acestor modele o reprezintă formatul fizic. Spre deosebire de mainframe-urile tradiționale masive, Compact z17 și LinuxONE 5 ocupă un spațiu standard în rack. Acest lucru înseamnă că pot fi integrate instantaneu în infrastructura existentă a oricărui centru de date de colocare (co-location), reducând dramatic costurile de instalare și amprenta la sol.🔹 Performanță optimizată pentru AI și securitate cuantică:Ambele sisteme sunt echipate cu acceleratoare integrate pe cip dedicate proceselor de Deep Learning și inteligență artificială, permițând analizarea tranzacțiilor financiare și detectarea fraudelor în timp real, direct în timpul procesării datelor (in-transaction AI).Pe partea de securitate, IBM introduce suportul pentru criptografia post-cuantică (Quantum-Safe), protejând datele sensibile împotriva viitoarelor atacuri cibernetice bazate pe supercomputere cuantice.🔹 LinuxONE 5: Platforma ideală pentru consolidarea Linux:Versiunea LinuxONE 5 este construită exclusiv pentru ecosistemul open-source, fiind optimizată pentru a rula mii de mașini virtuale Linux sau containere enterprise (cum ar fi cele din Red Hat OpenShift). Datorită arhitecturii masiv paralele, un singur rack LinuxONE 5 poate înlocui zeci de servere x86 tradiționale, reducând consumul de energie electrică cu până la 75% și spațiul necesar cu 50%.🔹 Fiabilitate de tip „Seven Nines” (99.99999%):Sistemele păstrează standardul legendar de disponibilitate al IBM. Arhitectura include redundanță completă la nivel hardware (procesoare, memorie, surse de alimentare), permițând realizarea upgrade-urilor de firmware și înlocuirea componentelor defecte din mers, fără a opri funcționarea aplicațiilor business sau a bazelor de date.Prin lansarea Compact z17 și LinuxONE 5, IBM democratizează accesul la cea mai sigură platformă de calcul de pe planetă, oferind o alternativă ultra-sustenabilă, compactă și scalabilă pentru companiile care doresc să își modernizeze infrastructura IT în condiții de confidențialitate totală a datelor.#IBM #Mainframe #z17 #LinuxONE5 #EnterpriseLinux #DataCenter #HybridCloud #QuantumSafe #TechNews #NerdsXYZ

Here's a question for the community: what's the longest-running Rocky Linux system you have in production?

Whether it's a homelab server that's been humming along for years or a production box you've never had to think twice about, we want to hear about it. Drop your answer in the comments.

History of #CentOS: How a biochemist's #Linux hobby project became the enterprise world's default #operatingsystem
When a community came together after #RedHat said Windows was 'probably the right product'
#GregoryKurtzer, CentOS's founder, tells the story of how the Red Hat #EnterpriseLinux clone was born of a small group of rebuild hackers and Linux fans who were angry that #RHEL had replaced #RedHatLinux and convinced they could do better.

Rocky Linux is solid. But what do you actually get when you need commercial guarantees behind it?

I'm breaking down RLC Pro and the full RLC product family: from RLC+ for GPU workloads to RLC Pro AI for HPC and machine learning.
