Brand information

Rocky Linux is a community-driven, enterprise-grade, open-source operating system designed to be 100% compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). The project was created as a response to the announcement by Red Hat Inc. that they will discontinue the free RHEL clone, CentOS, which has been widely used by developers, system administrators, and businesses. The Rocky Linux project was started by Gregory Kurtzer, the founder of the CentOS project, and is sponsored by the Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation, a non-profit organization that aims to provide a stable, secure, and reliable Linux distribution for the community.

Rocky Linux is designed to provide a stable, secure, and high-performance platform for a wide range of applications and workloads, from web servers to databases and containerized applications. It offers long-term support and regular updates, as well as a familiar package manager and system administration tools, making it an ideal choice for businesses and organizations that require a reliable and cost-effective Linux distribution. Rocky Linux is available for download from the project's official website and can be installed on physical servers, virtual machines, and cloud instances.
