    Offers a reliable operating system with predictable updates for versatile Linux server deployment

    Reviewed on Apr 24, 2025
    Review from a verified AWS customer

    What is our primary use case?

    I use AlmaLinux  as the base operating system for all of our Linux servers. Our environment includes use cases that range from a load balancer on the NGINX  platform to our monitoring software, Check Point, on AlmaLinux . We also run Microsoft SQL Server  on AlmaLinux.

    What is most valuable?

    The most valuable features of AlmaLinux are its long-term support, which is a significant advantage as CentOS  lacks it. AlmaLinux has a predictable update cycle unlike Fedora and the frequent updates of CentOS  from Red Hat. Additionally, AlmaLinux offers excellent stability.

    What needs improvement?

    It is hard to say what needs improvement because I am on the operations side and focus on installing servers and running our software.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have had experience with AlmaLinux for about five years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    The stability is excellent. So far, I have not experienced any issues with AlmaLinux, apart from problems related to our own software, which is a separate story.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    On a scale of one to ten, I would rate the scalability as nine.

    How are customer service and support?

    I have not used AlmaLinux support at all. I rely on the extensive documentation available online and various forums. Additionally, my team has several individuals who are very familiar with AlmaLinux, and we have been managing well on our own.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Positive

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I previously used CentOS but switched to AlmaLinux when CentOS started having issues.

    How was the initial setup?

    The initial setup is pretty much straightforward. I use automation tools such as Ansible  for the installation process, making deployment efficient regardless of whether it's AWS  or on-site.

    What about the implementation team?

    I use Ansible  to install any servers in my environment.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    AlmaLinux is free of charge, which is why I chose this distribution. It offers an alternative to Red Hat, which is free only without support and updates. AlmaLinux provides free updates and security, unlike Red Hat, where support must be purchased separately.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    I previously used CentOS before switching to AlmaLinux.

    What other advice do I have?

    Overall, I would rate AlmaLinux a ten. I would recommend AlmaLinux because it is a stable, simple operating system with a straightforward installation process that I have found reliable so far without any glitches. I rate the overall solution ten out of ten.
