Hello ATO ’23!
We are so grateful to the All Things Open
community for welcoming us back again.
Enterprise Linux, Free Forever, Community-Owned and RHEL ® compatible.
AlmaLinux OS is an enterprise Linux operating system that is used across the globe for enterprise and hobbyist needs alike. When we got our start we were a downstream rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, but earlier this year we shifted to maintaining compatibility with RHEL for our community. With over 500,000 servers calling out to one of our 300+ geo-located mirrors every night, the adoption of AlmaLinux since our inception just over 2.5 years ago has both humbled and ignited us.
500,000+ Servers
Every night 500,000+ servers are calling home to our geo-located mirror system, and that number doesn’t account for systems using their own mirrors or sharing an IP address.

Expanded Platform Support
ELevate your distro
As users of the historic CentOS, we have been working diligently to solve the problems and pain points that we all experienced, and one way we’ve done that is with Project ELevate. ELevate allows you to upgrade your enterprise linux operating system between major versions in place. No more having to migrate all of your data, instead ELevate your distribution!
* - migration to CentOS Stream 9 is currently in development and will be available later.
** - migration to Oracle Linux 9 is available with the
Oracle Leapp utility and will not be supported by ELevate project.
Note: If you use cPanel, we recommend using the cPanel ELevate fork.
Note: If you use CloudLinux, we recommend using the CloudLinux ELevate fork.
Security
Errata
AlmaLinux OS Foundation publishes Errata to help users to determine what updates such as security issues and fixed bugs are available and their importance based on analysis.
OpenSCAP and OVAL
AlmaLinux OS provides SCAP and SCAP Workbench packages to audit your AlmaLinux system for security compliance alongside OVAL streams.
Software Bill of Materials
AlmaLinux OS has implemented SBOM into AlmaLinux Build System to make the build process more secure and possible to trace.
AlmaLinux OS provides a set of security features: Errata, GPG keys, Mailing Lists, OpenSCAP, OVAL, SBOM- read more.

Building AlmaLinux OS without RHEL sources code
Abstract: AlmaLinux OS has historically been built to be an exact copy of RHEL, using RHEL's provided resources. With RedHat's shift away from sharing the full building blocks on git.centos.org, the AlmaLinux team has been hard at work to find a new, reliable path forward. Come hear about what we've been doing since June, and what we're planning for the future.
