Enterprise Linux, the community way.
Rocky Linux is an open-source enterprise operating system designed to be 100% bug-for-bug compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux®. It is under intensive development by the community.
Stable, production ready Linux
Rock solid, no matter the use-case.
Rocky Linux rebuilds sources directly from RHEL®, so you can bet your best dollar that you'll have a super stable experience, no matter the use-case.
Production Ready
Rocky Linux is enterprise-ready, providing solid stability with regular updates and a 10-year support lifecycle, all at no cost.
Community Supported
The community, sponsors, and partners have invested with long-term commitments to ensure the project stays with the community.
Easy Migration
Migrate from other Enterprise Linux distributions without sweating it. We provide an easy-to-use migration script, free of charge.
Current Release Progress
Rocky Linux 9.0 will be ready for general release in the June - July 2022 timeframe after thorough testing and validation.
In tandem with Rocky Linux 9, we are releasing Peridot, the new build system with which it is forged. We are excited to open source Peridot, which has been in development for over a year! This release represents our commitment to free and open source software as well as the longevity of the project which necessitates that Rocky Linux is built in the open, with replicable and verifiable tooling.
