CPE Weekly Update - Week 33 2022 – Fedora Community Blog
Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (or EPEL) is a Fedora Special Interest Group that creates, maintains, and manages a high quality set of additional packages for Enterprise Linux, including, but not limited to, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), CentOS and Scientific Linux (SL), Oracle Linux (OL).
EPEL packages are usually based on their Fedora counterparts and will never conflict with or replace packages in the base Enterprise Linux distributions. EPEL uses much of the same infrastructure as Fedora, including buildsystem, bugzilla instance, updates manager, mirror manager and more.

Red Hat OpenShift adds heterogenous clusters mixing x86, Arm
Red Hat has delivered a tech preview of its OpenShift containerization platform that can drive clusters spanning both x86 and Arm silicon.
Version 4.10 of OpenShift, announced in March 2022, added the ability to run on Amazon Web Services Arm-powered Graviton CPUs. At the time, RedHat said the release was "only the start of our plans for OpenShift on Arm, in the coming releases you will see more and more of the add on features that run on x86 also being available for OpenShift on Arm."
The IBM subsidiary's next release, version 4.11, debuted earlier this week and added an agent-based installer, more supported deployment configurations including the ability to run in Nutanix environments, and a higher level of FedRAMP compliance.
And there's also that tech preview, which Red Hat states is needed because "Arm continues its impressive march to full adoption."

Red Hat OpenShift: Accelerating business opportunities with an adaptable 5G platform
In a marketplace that is becoming more and more crowded with both traditional and new competitors, it’s crucial that telecommunications service providers embrace disruption as a key component to capitalizing on the opportunities presented by 5G.
New competitors are particularly threatening as their value propositions can compete on service quality and reliability that have been bastions of the traditional service provider offering. A trusted and reliable reputation will remain an important differentiator, but being seen as innovative is an additional key trait added to the mix. The evolution of a provider’s 5G core network is strategic in terms of innovation and will provide greater flexibility and increased agility to better serve customers and drive revenue growth.
