  • Red Hat selects the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention for 2019 U.S. corporate holiday donation

    For the twelfth year in a row, Red Hatters took an active role in selecting a charitable organization to be the beneficiary of our holiday U.S. corporate donation. During the process, they nominated more than 140 charities and more than 1,250 associates participated in the final vote. For our 2019 corporate holiday donation, Red Hatters have chosen to support the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) with a $75,000 donation that will contribute to the organization's efforts to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide.

    AFSP is a voluntary health organization that gives those affected by suicide a nationwide community empowered by research, education and advocacy to take action against a leading cause of death. AFSP creates a culture that’s smart about mental health by funding scientific research, educating the public about mental health and suicide prevention and advocating for public policies in mental health and suicide prevention.

  • Use Red Hat Enterprise Linux on IBM Z

    In November, the IBM Z community came together and hosted IBM Z Day, where various companies, organizations, and individuals told their stories and shared their expertise with IBM Z. In the open source track, we welcomed representatives from SUSE, Red Hat, and Canonical (Ubuntu) to talk about what their respective companies and Linux distributions had to offer.

    In the case of Red Hat, IBM and Red Hat have been working together for more than 20 years helping customers and partners build solutions in open source technologies and innovations that amplify the value of open source for the developer community. In his in-depth session on this topic, Red Hat Global Solutions Architect Murthy Garimella began by exploring Red Hat’s relationship with IBM and their place in open source. In this blog post, I cover some of the key points from his talk. The link to the talk for on-demand viewing is available at the end of this post.

    As a leader in the open source space, Red Hat is working across the community with technical leaders, developers, and partners to enable Red Hat open source technology to drive projects and products with rich features and commitment.

    Red Hat and IBM share a common objective in their commitment to open source ecosystems, and both invest in the advancement of open source communities to build solutions across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. To find out more, I suggest reading “Red Hat and IBM: Accelerating the adoption of open source” by Red Hat CTO Chris Wright.

    [...]

    Red Hat continues to focus on supporting developers, as described in the blog post “Preserving the Red Hat developer experience.” The company is involved in many communities and supports everything from open source to containers to middleware to storage to OpenStack — all the way up to management and automation.

    You can learn more about Red Hat Enterprise Linux on IBM Z and LinuxONE by watching Murthy Garimella’s recent presentation at IBM Z Day.

  • How To Install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9 - idroot

    In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9. For those of you who didn’t know, MongoDB is a high-performance, highly scalable document-oriented NoSQL database. Unlike in SQL databases where data is stored in rows and columns inside tables, in MongoDB, data is structured in JSON-like format inside records which are referred to as documents. The open-source attribute of MongoDB as a database software makes it an ideal candidate for almost any database-related project. This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the MongoDB NoSQL database on AlmaLinux 9. You can follow the same instructions for CentOS and Rocky Linux.

  • Self-host a Ghost Blog With Traefik

    Ghost is a very popular open-source content management system. Started as an alternative to WordPress and it went on to become an alternative to Substack by focusing on membership and newsletter. The creators of Ghost offer managed Pro hosting but it may not fit everyone's budget. Alternatively, you can self-host it on your own cloud servers. On Linux handbook, we already have a guide on deploying Ghost with Docker in a reverse proxy setup. Instead of Ngnix reverse proxy, you can also use another software called Traefik with Docker. It is a popular open-source cloud-native application proxy, API Gateway, Edge-router, and more. I use Traefik to secure my websites using an SSL certificate obtained from Let's Encrypt. Once deployed, Traefik can automatically manage your certificates and their renewals. In this tutorial, I'll share the necessary steps for deploying a Ghost blog with Docker and Traefik.
