The beta versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8.7 and 9.are now available, providing developers and integrators with a more flexible and stable foundation to support hybrid cloud innovation and faster, more consistent experiences for applications deployment and critical workloads.
► New features for checking Podman container health
► Enhanced security for checking validity of boot environments
The new versions bring new features and enhancements that deliver greater consistency and a stronger security posture to the open hybrid cloud’s foundation, with the ability to deliver workloads, applications, and services faster with less effort across various environments.
One significant addition enables users to monitor Podman container health with the web console showing the containers in the list of top CPU and memory consumers, along with CPU temperature.
New security features include the ability for organisations that use identity management in RHEL to use new Ansible® tooling to configure smart card authentication across their entire topology. They can also now access RHEL systems using identities stored in an external source, such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
In the RHEL 9.1 beta there is improved support for multi-level security (MLS) is available and a security administrators can more easily verify the integrity of their operating system’s boot environment.
