Oracle Linux 10 Released, This Is What’s New
After the launch of RHEL 10, followed by Alma 10 and Rocky 10, Oracle Linux 10 has officially arrived, offering complete binary compatibility with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 for enterprise environments.
As expected, the release’s main highlight is Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 8.1 (UEK 8.1). Built specifically for handling data-intensive and compute-heavy workloads, UEK 8.1 substantially improves memory management, file systems, and networking performance.
Another standout feature is Oracle Ksplice, available with Oracle Linux Premier Support. This powerful tool provides zero-downtime patching, allowing organizations to apply critical kernel and user space updates, such as those affecting glibc and OpenSSL, without system reboots.
