The replacement for CentOS is here, and its name is Rocky Linux! The founder is also the cofounder of CentOS, Gregory Kurtzer. In this video, I'll cover what happened with CentOS and why Rocky Linux needed to be created, as well as the installation and migration to Rocky. Rocky is a communitybased complete rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) that gives users a free option for running enterpriselevel server software. How it came to be is a story of what should have never happened. 8.3 RC is currently available for download at the link below.
