Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.1: Six months after the release of the last major update of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8 flagship operating system, the first minor release RHEL 8.1 has been released. The updated version offers brings improvements in management, the better safety and hybrid cloud performance.
First of all, we should mention that the new Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.1 fully supports live kernel patching. This will allow you to update your Linux kernel for Critical or Important Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) without having to restart the system. This will keep your system running even if serious security vulnerabilities have been fixed in your kernel code.
With your RH subscription, you will also have access to data της εταιρείας για το σύστημά σας. Πρόκειται για μια δυναμική αναφορά αναλυτικών στοιχείων που θα σας βοηθήσει να αντιμετωπίσετε τα προβλήματα ρύθμισης παραμέτρων και άλλα themeof your system before they develop serious problems.
The new RHEL also includes new SELinux profiles for containers. SELinux is known to be very difficult to install and configure. With custom security policies it will be much easier to secure your containers and applications.
As usual, the latest RHEL includes the latest stable versions of developer tools.
Let's mention that Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.1 is the first release in Red Hat's new plan to have minor releases every six months.
The new RHEL is available to Red Hat subscribers through Red Hat Customer Portal. Red Hat Developer Program members can use free the latest RHEL for a year.
