CentOS Alternative AlmaLinux OS Is Now Available for 64-Bit PowerPC Architecture

In an attempt to provide the community with a CentOS alternative that’s closer to parity with the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) operating system, AlmaLinux OS Foundation published today a new stable release that lets users install the distribution on 64-bit PowerPC (PPC64le) hardware.

AlmaLinux OS 8.5 was released last year in mid-November based on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5 release, bringing two new repositories, including ResilientStorage and Plus, new OpenSCAP Security Guide profiles, a new STIG profile compatible with server GUI installations, as well as a new French National Security Agency (ANSSI) high-level profile.
