They sell support more than anything

They have a fair amount of features, like satellite

I really like RedHat's product line as a way to move a business towards the FOSS ecosystem. I really wish they hadn't done their enshitfitcation of their products, but even after that they are still better than most enterprise alternatives.

Yeah we are looking to replace them ourselves tbh

I make sure to include OpenEL as the spec we are building on instead of RHEL. I like the architecture, just not the liability their non-foss policies put on us. We got hit by HashiCorps license change too, rough bit of time to be honest.

Who are you looking at? Suse and Rancher are two I am keeping an eye on.

We are an MSSP so it's a bit different. Since we can offload license costs to customers and as long as they prefer having this party support and it's not losing us bids we are ok.

But we have been looking at Ubuntu and CentOS previously, the main issue is how to replace Satellite.

For Kubernetes we run on k3OS

What features of satellite really have you hooked?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Mainly package management and patching
