Daily monitoring has improved security and performance and supports reliable administration
What I dislike about Oracle Linux 8 | Support by SupportedImages mainly pertains to the command prompt. Everything is written in the command line, so if it were more graphical, where I could use a mouse pointer or an AI system to update and be more automated and user-friendly, it would be better. There would be no need to memorize any command. For example, if I want to delete something, I should be able to use the mouse pointer, go to the specific folder, and right-click to delete. If Oracle Linux 8 | Support by SupportedImages added this type of user-friendly graphical interface, it would be more usable and faster for everybody without needing to be a super expert.

Regarding how RedHat 9 with support by ProComputers could be improved, I believe there are some points that could be enhanced, such as reducing the complexity and cost of licensing. The subscription model and socket counting can be complex and have a high cost for expanding smaller development environments. The learning curve could also be simplified: although security is impeccable, solving SELinux troubleshooting issues in advanced scenarios requires a considerable amount of diagnostic time for those who are just starting out. Documentation and the unified migration interface could be improved as well. The process of transitioning between major versions, such as from RedHat 8 to 9, has evolved a lot with Leapp, but it could still have tools such as simpler visual wizards and less dependency on manual scripts and customized scenarios. For me, the main improvement points in RedHat 9 with support by ProComputers are mainly the cost of the subscription model, which can be high when scaling new environments, and the complexity of configuring SELinux, which requires more time for the team to analyze errors when advanced blocks occur. I believe that RedHat 9 with support by ProComputers, to be a 10, would need to address what I mentioned in the previous answer. That would be broader documentation in the sense of providing tools with more visual and simple assistance, with less dependence on scripts, and reducing cost complexity. Some subscription and socket counting models can have a high cost for expansions of smaller development environments. I believe I have mentioned all the improvement suggestions I think are viable.

"I believe that one of the main points for improving the environment with RedHat 9 with support by ProComputers is increased access and training, as even though there is well-structured documentation on RedHat’s website, access for new professionals to Linux platforms and all the products RedHat provides remains very restricted, limiting it to people with extensive experience with Linux systems and RedHat itself."
