Overview

AlmaLinux is an enterprise Linux distribution that is binary compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, using the familiar dnf and yum package tooling. It is a drop in path for teams moving off CentOS 8 without changing their applications.

Why the cloudimg image

The image is hardened and fully patched, with SELinux and firewalld configured and cloud tooling verified so it boots ready to run production workloads. cloudimg provides 24/7 support with a defined response commitment, including migration assistance and performance tuning.
