What Rocky Linux is suited for

Like AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux is a rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux and also a successor to CentOS. The choice between the two usually depends on the systems that are already in operation.

Versions and updates

Rocky Linux 10 is supported until 2035, Rocky Linux 9 until 2032. You install updates yourself with dnf. Changing the major version requires a reinstallation in the customer portal.

In the customer portal

  • Reinstallation with a different operating system
  • Browser console
  • Rescue system
  • Start, stop and restart
  • Root password and SSH access
  • Primary IP and reverse DNS
  • Backups with download and restore
  • Resource usage and traffic

Key features of Rocky Linux

Strict conformance with Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Rocky Linux places emphasis on replicating Red Hat Enterprise Linux as closely as possible. Where a vendor certification explicitly names RHEL, that speaks in favor of Rocky Linux.

dnf, SELinux and firewalld

The same toolchain as AlmaLinux and the former CentOS. Existing processes and scripts can be carried over unchanged.

Maintained until 2035

Version 10 receives security updates until 2035, version 9 until 2032.

Available to order directly

You select Rocky Linux as the operating system when you order. A later reinstallation in the customer portal takes a few minutes.

Container or fully virtualized

We offer Rocky Linux as a container with Incus.

Container with Incus

Rocky Linux 10, 9

Shares the host system's kernel, starts in seconds and is the lower-priced option. Suitable for web servers, databases, applications and Docker.
