Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com November 14, AlmaLinux OS Foundation recently released AlmaLinux 9.3 update, which is independent of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) source code and built entirely from upstream (upstream) source code. It marks a qualitative change in CentOS alternative system development and is a new milestone in the field of open source enterprise Linux.

The vision of the AlmaLinux OS Foundation is to provide a stable and predictable platform for enterprise Linux users without affecting compatibility.

Jonathan Wright, CTO of Knownhost, could not hide his excitement, saying that "this version includes the code I submitted to the upstream of CentOS Stream, which has a very special meaning to me," which highlights the core collaborative spirit of AlmaLinux development.

Benny Vasquez, chairman of the board of directors of the AlmaLinux OS Foundation, thanked the community and highlighted the significant growth witnessed by AlmaLinux.

Vasquez says:

Our community is expanding, and there are currently more than 600000 servers around the world that regularly receive mirror updates from us, and our foundation has nearly 400 members and is expanding.

AlmaLinux OS version 9.3, codenamed "Shamrock Pampas Cat", is nearly six months later than AlmaLinux OS 9.2 and promises increased flexibility and reliability, enhanced security in mixed environments, simplified automation and system administration, and enhanced security and compliance.

In addition, AlmaLinux OS 9.3 provides enhanced flexibility, stability, and reliability for hybrid cloud innovation. In the background, this distribution is supported by the Linux kernel 5.14.0-362.8.1.el9_3 of the upstream Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.3 operating system.

The tool chain has also been updated, including GCC 11.4.1 as the default system compiler, and GCC 13 LLVM 16.0.6 Magnum Rust 1.71.1meme go 1.20.10 Keybook 7.3.0memo Node.js 20memRedis 7grafana 9.2.10grind PCP 6.0.5 last Valgrind 3.2l SystemTap 4.9elfutils 0.189OpenSCAP 1.3.8Ministry SEtools 4.4.3 and pcsc-lite-ccid 1.5.2.

In terms of security, AlmaLinux OS version 9.3 improves support for the extended Master key (EMS) extension (RFC 7627) required for all TLS 1.2 connections required by the FIPS-140-3 standard, and updates the SCAP Security Guide to version 0.1.69, which includes three new SCAP profiles that comply with the CCN-STIC-610A22 guidelines and ANSSI profile 2.0.
