“CERN Renounces RHEL in Favor of Debian for Its Accelerator Controls Infrastructure”
Well, nope. They are dropping CentOS, (free) not RHEL (costs $).

IBM's Red Hat and Canonical's Snap both earned the anger they get.
I still run RHEL and Ubuntu at work. Arch at home, Debian in the lab.
Letting a vendor grudge pick your skill set isn't principle — it's cutting off your own career to spite a logo.
apt vs dnf vs pacman is a shell-prompt argument, not an architecture one.
Run what you love at home. Support what's on the floor at work.

Das #Cern spart fast 6 Millionen Euro durch Umstieg von #RHEL auf #Debian, um veraltete Hardware weiterzuverwenden. RHEL 9 und 10 erfordern neue Hardware, die das Cern vermeiden will. Die Umstellung auf Debian 15 ist bis 2030 geplant, aktuell läuft Debian 12. https://www.golem.de/news/statt-rhel-cern-spart-mit-umstieg-auf-debian-fast-6-millionen-euro-2609-212624.html

#CERN Transitioning To #Debian After Being A Longtime #RHEL Institution
CERN formally even co-maintained the #ScientificLinux RHEL derivative
CERN engineers had considered moving to #CentOSStream as a more natural pathway but ultimately they say "the straw that broke the camel's back" to abandon Red Hat Enterprise #Linux was the "-march=x86-64-v2" compiler flag default as "forced obsolescence" for old hardware.

CERN is dropping #RHEL for #Debian. All 2200+ systems by the end of the year.
The reason being is that the "-march=x86-64-v2" compiler flag default as "forced obsolescence" for old hardware.
It's not without headaches, mostly due to "the lack of standard tooling for automated building and publishing of packages - a lot of gaps in the official tooling. There are also a number of tools not supporting multiple versions of the same packages."

In #melbourne for #redhat #summitconnect tomorrow. Presenting on #rhel and what we have evolved the platform around since the 10 release last year to meet the challenges we are seeing the larger FLOSS ecosystem and where our clients need support. Inevitably that means refining delivery and operational models to meet the velocity problem head on.

Yaay 8:30 meeting got cut short since we didnt have much to talk about. So what am I doing with my new fount 25-ish minutes? Working on a CFP submission for @BSidesDE !
Who wants to get hands on with bootc (on an enterprise class linux no less, RHEL), and learn how you can manage your OS like a container? What security benefits are there? Well you could find out!
Anyway, wish me luck!

Infinito.Nexus 12.0: From a Single Server to a Scalable Sovereign Cloud
Infinito.Nexus 12.0 is one of the most significant releases in the project’s history. Until now, Infinito.Nexus focused primarily on automating complete open-source environments on a single Docker Compose host. Version 12.0 introduces Docker Swarm as a second deployment mode, enabling applications to run across multiple servers, scale horizontally and recover from node failures. This release combines capabilities that are rarely delivered by one automation platform: More than 75 automatically deployable open-source applications One Single Sign-On experience backed by a unified user database Horizontal scaling across multiple cloud servers Automated backup and continuously tested disaster recovery Support across Debian, Arch Linux and RHEL-family distributions Filesystem-independent operation across ext4, btrfs and ZFS Together, these changes transform Infinito.Nexus from an application installer into a comprehensive foundation for scalable, sovereign cloud infrastructure.

Ansible is easy to install. A sane, reproducible development environment takes more thought.
My downstream-first setup uses RHEL 10.2, Podman, VS Code Dev Containers, and Red Hat-packaged Ansible Development Tools, while keeping the boundaries between upstream projects, downstream products, development containers, and production Execution Environments explicit.

#TechTipThursday: find out if your Linux box actually needs a reboot.
After a round of updates the guessing game is always the same. Do I need to reboot, or can I keep working? On Fedora and RHEL based systems, stop guessing:
needs-restarting -r
It checks whether the kernel or core libraries changed and tells you straight up whether a reboot is required. It lives in the dnf-utils package, so install that first if you don't have it.

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.

If given the choice of RHCSA Rapid Track or RHSA I (?) and II first with these results on the self evaluation, are there Red Hat people out there who could provide guidance?
My employer is paying, but I want to set myself up for success and not waste time. Thoughts?

The Best Boring #Benchmarks: #RockyLinux10 & #AlmaLinux10 Performance Against #RHEL10 Review
Testing on an AMD EPYC 9755 2P (EPYC Turin) server and using the same hardware across all tests, the performance of #RockyLinux 10 and #AlmaLinux 10 were right on-par with #RedHat #EnterpriseLinux 10 itself. Hence the best kind of boring benchmarks when the performance is right on track for where it should be.

As #RHEL clones hit version 10, Rocky and Alma chart diverging paths
Take a quick look at the headline features – and the growing differences
Perhaps the biggest and most obvious technological difference in this version is that #AlmaLinux offers a separate version for x86-64-v2 hardware. #RHEL10 itself, and Rocky with it, now require x86-64-v3, meaning Intel "Haswell"
But you'd expect all the RHELatives to be similar. That remains their primary selling point.

Rocky Linux 10, based on RHEL 10, released
Following the release of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 and the AlmaLinux 10, yet another Red Hat-based Linux derivative distro, Rocky Linux, has just released a new version that is compatible with the tenth major version of RHEL. This sets a huge milestone for just another community version of the RHEL distribution. You can download this version of Rocky Linux here.
Download nowRocky Linux 10, just like RHEL 10, requires the x86_64-v3 processor in order to run on modern computers. This is unlike AlmaLinux 10 that needed at least the x86_64-v2 processor. Also, Rocky Linux 10 no longer ships the 32-bit packages, which means that you will no longer to run 32-bit applications.
For the desktop environment, this version of Rocky Linux now uses the Wayland server exclusively instead of the legacy X11 protocol. However, some of the applications that have not yet been ported to Wayland can now run using the Xwayland protocol.
This version of Rocky Linux now supports the RISC-V architecture for users with such processor architecture. This is to make sure that computers that use a RISC-V processor be able to use Rocky Linux for the first time, expanding hardware support to the broader audience.
The following architectures are supported:
- 64-bit AMD/Intel x86-64-v3 (x86_64)
- 64-bit RISC-V (riscv64)
- 64-bit ARMv8.0-A (aarch64)
- IBM POWER, little endian (ppc64le)
- IBM z (s390x)
The following common packages have been updated:
- Dynamic programming languages, web, and database servers
- PHP 8.3
- Python 3.12
- nginx 1.26
- PostgreSQL 16.8
- MySQL 8.4
- Valkey 8.0
- MariaDB 10.11
- Performance tools and debuggers
- GDB 14.2
- Valgrind 3.23.0
- SystemTap 5.1
- Dyninst 12.3.0
- elfutils 0.192
- libabigail 2.6
- Performance monitoring tools
- Performance Co-pilot 6.3.0
- Grafana 10.2.6
- Compiler toolsets
- LLVM Toolset 19.1.7
- Rust Toolset 1.84.1
- Go Toolset 1.23

Running the cloud server for my website and my Forgejo instance on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 10 :redhat: now.
(Previously on CentOS-Stream9 :centos:)
Since I only have little load and want my infrastructure to consume as little energy as possible, I am running on an ARM64 (aarch64) system with Altara Ampere (Neoverse-N1) CPUs and on a shared hypervisor (Qemu/Kvm).
RHEL10 does run perfectly fine and is supported on the ARM64 CPU architecure :-)
All applications (my website, Forgejo, and a Keycloak instance) are running as rootless containers with Podman :podman:
And of course, all my services are run IPv6 first!

Just migrated my Cloud-Server at Netcup from CentOS-Stream 9 :centos: to Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 10 :redhat:
Since all my workloads were containerized with Podman :podman: that was very simple to do:
- Deploying new server in parallel
- Stopping all containers
- Moving the volumes and the systemd/quadlet files over to the new machine (/etc/containers/systemd)
- Starting all containers on the new host
- Updating DNS entries to new IP addresses
- Decomissioning the old machine#redhat #rhel #rhel10 #podman #container #centos #linux #devops

It seems Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 has been released. But what is new? The "release notes" ramble about "AI" and PQC, but... where are the actual release notes?!
