Rocky Linux is an open source, community-developed, production-ready distribution supported by the Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation (RESF).
Rocky Linux is an open source, community-developed, production-ready distribution supported by the Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation (RESF). The enterprise operating system is "100% bug-for-bug compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux" [1] and has a 10-year support life cycle with regular updates. Rocky Linux comes with the cloud native Peridot build system, which allows you to extend or reproduce Rocky Linux from scratch – thus avoiding end-of-life issues – and manages infrastructure and secure material like keys and secure boot shims.
In version 9, you'll find:
- Linux kernel 5.14.0-70
- OpenSSL 3.0.1
- OpenSSH 8.7p1
- SELinux performance improvements
- Automatic configuration of security compliance settings
- NetworkManager key files for new profiles
- GCC 11.2.1
- Go 1.17.7
The Rocky Linux team recommends a fresh install of major versions rather than upgrading older versions.
