Data engineer at a educational organization with 51-200 employees
Efficient deployments have become predictable and reduced downtime for critical workloads
The best features AlmaLinux 8 (Alma Linux 8) | Support by SupportedImages offers me include its stability, RHEL compatibility, long-term security support, security tools, convenient package management, and community-driven development. For me, the most valuable aspect of AlmaLinux 8 (Alma Linux 8) | Support by SupportedImages is stability when working with data pipelines, Python environments, and automated workloads because I want the operating system to stay reliable and predictable. This allows me to focus on development and analysis rather than spending time fixing environment issues. Regarding AlmaLinux 8 (Alma Linux 8) | Support by SupportedImages AI capabilities, I see governance and security as two of its strengths. From a governance perspective, I value its transparency. AlmaLinux 8 (Alma Linux 8) | Support by SupportedImages project is managed by a nonprofit foundation with a community-elected board and publicly available meeting minutes. That gives organizations visibility into how decisions are made and helps limit dependence on a single vendor.

Building AI-assisted disposable research tools has transformed how I automate data gathering
I believe IntelliSense is a good tool to work with, but I wish it could be strengthened in terms of auto suggestions and code rectification. It is efficient at this moment but has room for improvement. Firstly, there is room for improvement in IntelliSense auto suggestion and auto compilation. Although it is very good and robust, it can be improved. Secondly, I have noticed that it sometimes takes a little time to start up and can be a bit slow, perhaps because it consumes lots of RAM or CPU resources. If that can be improved, it would be beneficial. Regarding Visual Studio Professional 2022's AI capabilities, I believe it needs some improvement in accuracy and reliability. At the moment, while AI provides suggestions, I have to review and edit them. Although it has its concerns, it is good in that AI now gives a first draft, whereas in the past, humans had to write everything from scratch.

"The benefits that Visual Studio Professional 2022 provides combined with the pricing makes it a good choice."
 

Cons

"I rate AlmaLinux 8 (Alma Linux 8) | Support by SupportedImages an eight out of 10 due to poor documentation, which results in more time needed for server configuration implementation and makes the documentation hard to understand, even though everything else is very good."
"I would improve AlmaLinux 8 (Alma Linux 8) | Support by SupportedImages by making AI setup easier with tested installation guides, clear Python dependency requirements, and ready-to-use examples."
"I'm not certain if there's something that can be improved in AlmaLinux 8 (Alma Linux 8) | Support by SupportedImages, but in terms of vulnerabilities, it constantly is being hit with vulnerabilities."
"Apart from the editing feature, I would like to see improvement in Visual Studio Professional 2022 because performance has dropped significantly, making it currently about 100 times slower than Qt Creator, which is unreasonable to use in a multi-core environment such as the 128 cores that I use."
"Currently, Visual Studio Professional 2022 is not supporting the .TS, TypeScript code, which is a disadvantage, because with Playwright, we can do that in C#, but having Playwright code with TypeScript, I am not able to see any project or any suggestion about the .TS code."
"Regarding Visual Studio Professional 2022's AI capabilities, I believe it needs some improvement in accuracy and reliability."
"One area I could suggest regarding improvements in deployment efficiency using Visual Studio Professional 2022 is that the context-aware code suggestion should be more tailored."
