Oracle Linux 8.4

Oracle Linux Server 8.4 is the most comprehensive Linux environment to date. It provides virtualization, management, automation, and cloud native computing tools. It modernizes, optimizes, and secures hybrid and multicloud infrastructures. Applications can run on-premises, in Oracle Cloud, and in other clouds. Specially designed for Hybrid Cloud, Linux includes the latest open standards virtualization and cloud native tools.  

Oracle Linux is the only autonomous operating system (OS), which reduces OS management task complexity and overhead. It also includes automated Linux patching with no reboot required, for the kernel, hypervisor, and critical user-space libraries. An integrated suite of cloud native tools streamlines infrastructure deployments and improves workload performance.  

Oracle Linux Server 8.4 supports virtualization and containers in one image to get the most of your enterprise OS. This makes it popular among IT and enterprise users. Oracle Linux Server 8.4 is also ideal for DevSecOps who wish to minimize hostile vehicle mitigation (HVM). Installation is minimal and provides flexible scalability from nano instances to larger fleets for compatibility with your needs. 

Its Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel (UEK) and Red Hat Compatible Kernel are updated on the installation image. It includes kernel live patching (KLP), which applies critical security patches while the kernel runs, with no reboot required. A constantly updated enterprise is maintained without IRQs interrupting business activities.  

Oracle Linux 8.4 is 100% application binary compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), independent of the kernel underlying the OS. Versatility is offered between the native pre-configured RPM repository and user space compatibility with RHEL. The Oracle Linux 8.4 Server kernel is more innovative than other commercial Linux kernels. It runs at higher performance than is possible on image-import. 

Oracle Linux 8.4 offers flexible support options to match your enterprise’s needs. Its offerings include Embedded Linux, Linux in the cloud, and on-premises. Embedded Linux is most cost-effective by embedding feature-rich Linux distros. Linux in the cloud offers Oracle Linux Premier Support, free of charge. Linux on-premises is the best Linux OS for comprehensive and open distributions.  

Ntegral certified images are always up-to-date, secure, and built to work right out of the box. 

Ntegral packages applications following industry standards, and continuously monitors all components and libraries for vulnerabilities and application updates. When any security threat or update is identified, Ntegral automatically repackages the applications and pushes the latest versions to the cloud marketplaces.
