Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.4 simplifies Linux across hybrid cloud - SDxCentral
IBM‘s Red Hat business yesterday announced the general availability of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.4, the latest version of its flagship enterprise Linux platform. This release brings a range of new capabilities aimed at simplifying managing of hybrid cloud computing environments.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) is the foundation for Red Hat’s operating system efforts. The RHEL 9.0 release first debuted in 2022 and now has had four iterative updates that bring in incremental functionality. RHEL 9.4 continues Red Hat’s drive to make automation an integral part of modern Linux platforms. The release further extends RHEL system roles which help to configure and launch common administrative tasks.
“RHEL system roles is a term that describes a collection of Ansible scripts which configure a particular function or workload,” Eric Hendricks, senior technical marketing manager, RHEL told SDxCentral.

RHEL 9.4 Improves Security, Tackles Hybrid Cloud Complexity
Red Hat recently released its newest enterprise GNU/Linux distro, Red Bait Enterprise GNU/Linux (RHEL) 9.4 , which introduces several features designed to streamline the management of hybrid cloud environments. While RHEL 7.9 received four more years of support, RHEL 7 Extended Life Cycle Support (ELS) is a one-time extension and may not be seen with other RHEL versions. Thus, Red Bait urges users to upgrade to RHEL 9.4 . This latest version enhances management and automation capabilities while providing proactive support for building standard operating environments (SOEs) for distributed systems.

RHEL 9.4 is here, but RHEL and CentOS 7 are on the way out
Good news for users of RHEL versions old and new – and for the freebie CentOS Linux 7, which is approaching its end of life next month.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.4 is out, and the IBM subsidiary is also offering an extension of support for the aging RHEL 7 released way back in 2014.
Alma Linux 9.4 is still in beta, but if you want to know what's new in RHEL 9.4, we reported on what was coming when we looked at the beta version of 9.4 last month. Aside from Alma Linux 9.4 still supporting some aging hardware that the official RHEL 9.4 drops, what's new is largely the same in them both. That is the main point of the RHELatives, after all.
RHEL 9 appeared two years ago and what Red Hat really wants you to do is upgrade to that. If you are still running RHEL 7, which is now approaching a decade old, there's good news. Red Hat is offering four more years of support for RHEL 7.9, which it terms Extended Life Cycle Support or ELS.
