been solid.

FWIW, Rocky Linux dropped GA v8.4 on Jun 21st and has been really stable
for me thus far. For those not aware, Rocky is based on RHEL and has
the primary goal to be a CentOS replacement.
Also has solid sponsors - AWS, Microsoft, & Google…

Hello,
Even if centos stream 8 is pretty stable for production usage his eol
date is until 2024 (same as centos 7).
In the following 2 years i will have to migrate my centos 7 servers to
something newer. I can choose a distro with the same eol date.
I need a distro which much more long eol date.
Finally i choose to trust the oracle developers who maintain the
oracle linux (based on rhel source packages).
In the future i will also try the almalinux distro (maintained by
cloudlinux).

Hello,
Check https://wiki.centos.org/About/Product to find the EOL dates for
each version of Centos.
To my opinion the only centos version that is anymore appropriate for
production usage is version 7. Centos 8 is production ready but the eol
date is only a few months away.
I choosed to migrate my centos 8 machines to oracle linux 8 for
production usage, but many more distros have appeared (almalinux,
rockylinux, springdale linux, etc). All of them follow the EOL dates
for
RHEL 8.x ( May 2029) and are build from the sources packaes of RHEL.
You are entitled to your opinion :D // but, IMHO ..
If you are not doing anything special with the kernel, then there is
very little difference between CentOS Stream and CentOS Linux.
I would surely rather trust the 1500 RHEL developers who are maintaining
CentOS Stream than anyone else .. but that is just my opinion.

Hi,
I am confused between CentOS Linux and CentOS Stream as per
https://www.centos.org/download/. Please guide me on which one I
need to
use in the production environment. Is there a difference between
CentOS
Linux and CentOS Stream?
Thanks in advance and I look forward to hearing from you.
