SUSE forking Red Hat Enterprise Linux codebase |
 |
In the wake of Red Hat cutting off public access to their Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) source code, SUSE has announced the company is making a fork of RHEL. "A key priority is to continue to provide choice for customers. SUSE announced today we will build, support and contribute a hard fork of the RHEL codebase to the community. This is what we excel at, and it will give long-term compatibility and choice for customers. The best way to explain this is by the following comparison:
If you are a mobile phone user, you want the ability to switch telco provider while keeping your number, to maximize the value you are consuming.
Equally, as an Enterprise Linux user, you can switch to SUSE while keeping your existing Linux. At SUSE, we are experts at providing enterprise value to users of open source software in a highly competitive way without compromising what is important to customers."
It seems the company's plan is to maintain a fork of RHEL and attempt to keep it as binary compatible as possible to Red Hat's offering. This should allow people running RHEL or its clones to migrate their applications and services seamlessly to SUSE's offering without worrying about future access to source code or support options. |
