This makes sense. Red Hat has been investing in Project Atomic for a while now and CoreOS still seems like a better option, if you're looking for a container-only OS that has been battle tested.
Additionally, both companies seem like good places to work, with leadership that's often praised and has the results to show. I'm happy for CoreOS on this one, they're joining a company that I admire.
Looking forward to see how this will impact RHEL8.
- Avshalom 9y agoProbably rhel9. I have no professional insight into this but the historic timeline implies 8 will be out soon, I suspect they are just waiting for Wayland to get some where they feel comfortable with. Anything past Wayland is probably a 9 feature.
- bonzini 9y agoAtomic Host was introduced in RHEL7.2 if I remember correctly. There's a lot of room for introducing CoreOS technology before RHEL9, which would probably be 4-5 years from now. (disclaimer: working at Red Hat, though not on anything related to containers).
- digi_owl 9y agoInvesting is probably putting it mildly. The top contributor is directly on their payroll...
- robszumski 9y agoCoreOS product manager here. Container Linux will live on, beside Fedora and CentOS as other Linux projects with maintainers from Red Hat. Keep Kube'n and Docker'n per usual.
