Red Hat, Alma Linux, and EuroLinux: Version 9.2 Updates Continuing with the latest news about the release of new versions of GNU/Linux distributions, we will now focus on the recent release of "Red Hat 9.2," which has also led to the almost automatic launch of other distributions based on it, such as Alma Linux 9.2 and EuroLinux 9.2. Just as there are numerous GNU/Linux distros based on Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, or OpenSUSE, there are also those based on Red Hat. Red Hat is an ideal foundation for multipurpose enterprise distributions. As a reminder, GNU/Linux distributions come in community or enterprise versions. Community versions are usually entirely free, with support and maintenance provided by the open and free community. Enterprise (commercial) versions are available in exchange for a set amount of money or payment of a subscription to a third party, with support and maintenance provided either by a single, closed team or in conjunction with the community. Before reading about the changes in "Red Hat 9.2" and the simultaneous versions of Alma Linux and EuroLinux, we recommend reviewing our previous article on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, which comes with Linux 5.14, Gnome 40, and many improvements. Red Hat 9.2: A Second Update 6 Months Later According to the official announcement of this recent release, some of the most outstanding updates in Red Hat 9.2 include expanded support of system roles capabilities (RHEL-specific Ansible content that helps deliver greater consistency and efficiency at scale by automating common administrative tasks) with the addition of RHEL's system role for Podman, making it possible for administrators to better automate configurations that suit their specific environments. It also expands the Image Builder tool's capacity to include specific organizational security policies in the images created, such as those defined by a given OpenSCAP security profile or for the safer provisioning of perimeter devices. Additionally, it now supports creating and sharing RHEL blueprints, both inside and outside the data center. It features improvements in the Podman tool to help make sense of the potential expansion of containers, starting with the ability to track container creation events, both manually and as part of an automated workflow, making it easier to maintain a complete view of system activity, especially in environments that require periodic audits.
