About

Linux on Azure helps teams build, deploy, and run applications on the Linux distribution of their choice using a proven cloud platform for Linux workloads. It supports open-source innovation with managed databases, scalable infrastructure, built-in code-to-cloud security, and the ability to automatically scale infrastructure to meet changing demands without compromising performance. Azure enables organizations to run Linux across virtual machines, containers, Kubernetes, hybrid environments, and open source database services, while supporting major Linux ecosystems such as Red Hat, Ubuntu, SUSE, and Azure Linux. Teams can provision Linux virtual machines in seconds, deploy and scale containers with Azure Kubernetes Service, use Azure Linux as a container host operating system for AKS, and dynamically scale virtual machine groups with Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets.

Rocky Linux:

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It installs? Maybe it's easy if you installed all of it, so that it automatically takes you to the GUI with the first boot. I did the minimal install OS on a DVD.

Cons

  • If you get the base OS version, you can't do squat. It's all locked down, even denying permissions to root. And support is very slim compared to Slackware. On Slackware's page, it has tons of basics and step by step instructions for doing things. It's fully operating, running dhclient to get an IP address, while you try that with Rocky, it says command not found, as it does on almost everything. Don't try Xorg -config because, guess what? Command not found. It's raring to go with Slackware, it all WORKS. And I know because I've been using it for more than 15 years. I suppose if you loaded All of Rocky it would work, the full install. But it's apparently ALL or NOTHING with Rocky Linux.
