A2 Hosting introduces AlmaLinux as an alternative for customers relying on CentOS since the company recently announced that they’d stop developing CentOS 8 after this year.
AlmaLinux 8 continues to build upon CentOS 8, meaning customers get to stay on a similar platform. It’s a standalone, open-source protection-grade platform.
As a user, you don’t need to congest your network with two different software. Instead, you get a stable and optimized version compatible with CentOS 8.
internal engineering team and cPanel both recommend AlmaLinux 8 due to its reliability. The operating system features the latest technology and consistently updated support. Thus, it performs quick fixes.Furthermore, the OS accounts for seamless transitions among platforms. In other words, users get to save both time and money when switching from CentOS to AlmaLinux. At last, AlmaLinux can handle critical workloads as an enterprise-grade server OS, with regular releases and updates over time.

Our internal engineering team and cPanel both recommend AlmaLinux 8 because of its reliability. As such, we are now offering it for our Unmanaged VPS customers. We also plan to offer it as an option for our Managed VPS and Bare Metal Dedicated customers in the coming months.
