Exactly.
As stated in https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/centos-stream-building-innovative-future-enterprise-linux https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/centos-stream-building-innova... (linked from the article):
"CentOS Stream now sits between the Fedora Project’s operating system innovation and RHEL’s production stability"
So if we compare to Debian, this means:
Fedora <=> Debian unstable (Sid)
CentOS Stream <=> Debian testing (currently Bullseye)
RHEL <=> Debian stable (currently Buster)
- the_why_of_y 6y agoThere is no real equivalent to CentOS Stream in Debian's release model. Perhaps the closest is "the DAK upload queue for Debian stable", but that tends to contain mostly security updates, and according to other posts in this thread that is the one case where CentOS Stream is not an upstream of RHEL. CentOS Stream contains feature backports, which generally don't happen in Debian stable, but it's only very specific backports, not every package gets updated like in Debian testing. I'd put it like: Fedora rawhide <=> Debian unstable Fedora <=> Debian testing CentOS Stream <=> DAK upload queue for Debian stable RHEL <=> Debian stable
