    Overview

    The Red Hat Enterprise Linux with High Availability image is the foundation to a clustered system that provides reliability, scalability, and availability to critical production services. A cluster is two or more instances (called nodes or members) that work together to perform a task.

    Highlights

    • Cluster infrastructure - Provides fundamental functions for nodes to work together as a cluster: configuration file management, membership management, lock management, and fencing.
    • High availability Service Management - Provides failover of services from one cluster node to another in case a node becomes inoperative.
    • Cluster administration tools - Configuration and management tools for setting up, configuration, and managing the High Availability Add-On. The tools are for use with the Cluster Infrastructure components, the high availability and Service Management components, and storage.

It's crucial for enterprise-level servers that demand continuous uptime. I love its stability since it prevents downtime and server crashes, allowing me to avoid worrying about interruptions. Additionally, it offers a high level of security with built-in firewalls that protect against hackers. The support is excellent too, available anytime, which is particularly beneficial if something goes wrong. It's also a great choice for big companies due to its stability and strength in preventing unauthorized access.

    Exceptional Reliability and Support for Enterprise Workloads

    Reviewed on Dec 30, 2025
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    This is one of the best Linux distributions, offering regular updates and security patches that make it highly reliable. The support from the Linux team is excellent, and the Redhat community consistently provides outstanding assistance. In our experience, this system has managed our production workloads smoothly, with very few outages resulting from the regular upgrades performed by Redhat. This reliability has increased our confidence in using it within our enterprise environment, where we run important enterprise applications such as open source databases and Kubernetes services.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Overall, migrating users from different operating systems, such as Windows servers or various Linux distributions like Ubuntu and OpenSuse, can be quite challenging.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We can host various databases on different RHEL versions and run our enterprise applications, including open source password safe servers, without issues. These virtual machines also interact seamlessly with other services, such as cloud-native Kubernetes solutions like AKS and PaaS databases.
