“We are very pleased to support the AlmaLinux OS Foundation,” said Peter Großöhme, Chief Operating Officer and Head of Engineering at MEGWARE. “AlmaLinux provides updates and security patches very quickly. This is an outstanding performance compared to previous CentOS community releases and other current RHEL-based Linux distributions.”
“The continued support from organizations such as BlackHOST, Hawk Host, OpenLogic and MEGWARE helps arm the foundation with the resources it needs to best serve our fast-growing community,” said benny Vasquez, chair of the AlmaLinux OS Foundation. “As we watch the open source industry struggle to find a balance between ideology and practicality and we see our adoption rates continue to climb, it’s heartening to see companies that benefit from the existence of AlmaLinux give back to the organization in tangible ways.”
