Secure platform has supported large-scale banking services and provides reliable long-term use
CentOS 10 (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers updates sometimes take a very long time. If the CentOS 10 (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers team makes improvements, you should first take feedback from clients, users, and the community. There are many different kinds of people, so you must ask for feedback. From my perspective, sometimes hosting has delays. We can use the underlying OS control panel. However, a direct login will take some time. If you log in to that machine, it takes too much time. You can improve this area. Web server and hosting infrastructures should be worked on. Some organizational people, if working on that, can improve this area. A popular hosting stack is important because everyone needs to log in easily to any web server. Another area for improvement is enterprise middleware or banking systems, which are mostly what I am working on. IBM MQ tools are also used as a middleware platform. They can also easily connect. Work on the connect tool is needed. Suppose you have to connect CentOS 10 (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers SSH to secure shell command, connect to the terminal, and then use it. Secure shell command improvements would be beneficial. You can use enterprise middleware and banking systems if work is done on that. Additionally, you should work on database and file storage nodes. These are areas, from my perspective, that require improvements. Suppose you run any AWS, GCP, Azure, or virtual VM. You need to update some configurations. I have one more idea. Server and hosting CentOS 10 (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers, node centralization, worker nodes suppose you have to use Docker, Podman, and Kubernetes. Make sure to work on that.

Optimized database workloads have run securely and reduced licensing costs through virtualization
The major advantage of Oracle Linux 9 | Support by SupportedImages is that the update is free. Not just the patching and other things, but the update, some classes and other things, and some packages which I get free updates. If someone wants to use it, the license is free. If someone needs support, they can purchase the support. If someone does not purchase the support, there are free updates from Oracle. This is the major advantage to the customer, as they say that they are getting updates free. With Red Hat Linux, I have to purchase the support, otherwise I cannot get the update. Customers prefer that they are using it free and getting the update, and if they need support, they can purchase it anytime. The other part is that Oracle database runs well on Oracle Linux 9 | Support by SupportedImages. Whenever there are Intel servers in customer places and customers want to run Oracle database, they prefer Oracle Linux 9 | Support by SupportedImages. Oracle Linux 9 | Support by SupportedImages has very better security, but a few of the packages of Oracle still are not compatible with Oracle 9. So still in database perspective and grid perspective, I prefer 8. The feature is that it is very stable, memory consumption is low, and no additional service runs in the background. I can minimize the additional services if I want to stop it, it will stop. It is basically Red Hat Linux modified kernel, so those who know Red Hat Linux earlier can easily use Oracle Linux 9 | Support by SupportedImages. The other thing is that whenever I require, I can use the KVM of Oracle Linux 9 | Support by SupportedImages free of cost for virtualization. The Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel is a valuable feature. Security part differs, as it is built by the security team and the operating system team must enforce it. However, installation is very easy. Anyone can install it within twenty minutes without issues.

Cons

"While overall my product support experience has been solid, I believe it could be improved by expanding the pre-packaged module ecosystem, specifically with more out-of-the-box support for containerization like Docker, Podman, or pre-configured Kubernetes base nodes related to CentOS 10 (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers."
"I recommend providing constructive and solution-oriented feedback for CentOS 10 (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers, with focus on improving adoption, technical support from ProComputers, documentation, automation, and issue resolution."
"What keeps it from being a perfect 10 is simply the need for expanded documentation and official automation templates for ARM64 and AWS Graviton instances."

"CentOS 10 (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers updates sometimes take a very long time."
"Most tasks require manual installation, and if that could be improved, it would be beneficial."
"With the arrival of artificial intelligence, I would like CentOS 10 (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers to have more features in that field and also updating the kernel to a more recent version that supports GPUs better."

"When it comes to response time and first-level support quality, if I escalate the SR, that is when I get more attention."
"Technical support by Oracle was good, always. However, for the last few months, my customers have expressed significant frustration."
