Hybrid cloud platform has reduced downtime and has accelerated secure CI/CD delivery
The best features of CentOS 10 Stream Latest (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers that stand out the most for me include a variety of functionalities that enhance my work experience. CentOS 10 Stream Latest (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers provides 24/7 operation capabilities along with features such as cron jobs. I find the general security controls very helpful, along with smart error handling alerts that we can manage through an interactive centralized dashboard. Human security is a primary concern while running CentOS 10 Stream Latest (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers. I can fully control encrypted credentials, which we manage to automate tasks within a highly secure environment. These features are very useful, especially the smart error handling alerts that offer reliability. Regarding governance and security for CentOS 10 Stream Latest (CentOS 10) with support by ProComputers, the operating system aims for uptime performance, balancing cutting-edge features with reliability while optimizing the technical support provided. This becomes crucial for public cloud deployment across AWS, Azure, and GCP, thanks to its highly reliable package repository and modern kernel baseline. Its governance maintains transparency and reliability, inheriting an open-source community framework alongside Red Hat's development pipeline. The system features robust encrypted policies updated as SELinux profiles, which enhances the environment for isolating sensitive AI databases and handling large language models. Additionally, it provides a pre-cloned cloud baseline outlining vulnerabilities and scanning capabilities, ensuring AI workloads remain compliant with enterprise security standards.

Advanced automation and powerful traffic controls have improved application security
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 support is something that definitely could be improved in F5 BIG-IP [Private Offer Only]. I mean HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 protocol support, as well as security for them too. For F5 BIG-IP [Private Offer Only] to have better support for them would include load balancing, but also better WAF (Web Application Firewall) support for these two protocols. Improving the mentioned HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 support and the GUI would be beneficial. If they improve those things and add machine learning and AI, I want it to have some kind of AI on the box because everyone is going to AI, and they have to add some AI security to be able to check the traffic using AI models. HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 protocol support, AI, the GUI to be changed, and inline AI where the device downloads pre-built AI models from a SaaS cloud to check the traffic for security is something I think is very needed because using AI models as a replacement for signatures will be better. I think WAF signatures are a thing of the past. I would also like to see HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 in the future as additional features, and anything else I would improve would definitely include HTTP/2 and HTTP/3.
