Fun fact: if you use Red Hat, you have to use Docker EE. You don't even have the option of getting CE and taking responsibility for Docker support yourself.

- mbreese 8y agoCould you explain that a bit more?
- ecnahc515 8y agoThat isn't true. You can also use podman, and cri-o in the case of Kubernetes.
- justinclift 8y ago> if you use Red Hat... "Red Hat" as in RHEL specifically, or are you meaning any of the family (eg CentOS)? Asking because I've not hit any problems using Docker CE with CentOS 7. Well, aside from general bugs (etc). But nothing seems to force the use of EE instead of CE.
- morpheuskafka 8y agoDocker CE is officially supported (well, it's not supported because its CE, but it's packaged, repos, install guide) etc. but only EE is packaged for RHEL. RedHat also has their own docker package like many other distros, so you can still get it free easily, but you have to get it through them and wait on them for updates.
- Spivak 8y agoIf you're using RHEL why wouldn't you default to using Red Hat's build of Docker? I definitely prefer it to the official builds. Red Hat in general seems very annoyed at Docker and carries quite a few QoL patches like being able to add registries to search.
