Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 Beta is the next generation enterprise operating system that provides a stable foundation for your hybrid cloud environment.
Highlights:
- Rich set of new versions of applications that include databases, web servers, developer tools and infrastructure services delivering many new features and usability improvements.
- Support for modern hardware platforms and devices based on an upstream 4.x kernel.
- Standard set of tools to curate content and build lightweight installable images.
- Standard management interface to configure basic services (network, storage, and compute) with the help of system roles based on Ansible technology.
- Faster dependency resolution and a standard plug-in API for package management using YUM based on DNF technology.
- Simplification of the structure of the content set by consolidating packages into two repositories – BaseOS and Application Stream.
