The Linux world is abuzz with controversy as IBM Red Hat puts the source code for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) behind a paywall, leaving CentOS Stream as the only accessible option. Meanwhile, Oracle emphasizes its commitment to Linux freedom, offering open access to binaries and source code for their RHEL-compatible distribution, Oracle Linux. On the other hand, SUSE takes a bold step by forking RHEL and investing millions in developing their own RHEL-compatible distribution, free from restrictions. The battle for Linux supremacy is heating up, with each company vying for dominance and championing their respective visions of openness and innovation.Time Stamps: 0:00 - Welcome to the Rundown0:39 - Intel Shucks NUC Products7:18 - Kentik Announces Azure Observability10:18 - El Capitan Reporting for Duty15:39 - Microsoft Issues Patch Targeting Malicious Drivers18:53 - InfluxData Sees Influx of Angry Customers23:01 - Vector Capital Acquires Riverbed Technology26:52 - Oracle Wants Linux to Remain Open and Free31:34 - SUSE Working On Another Red Hat35:21 - The Battle Over Red Hat Enterprise Linux39:11 - The Weeks Ahead40:56 - Thanks for WatchingFollow our Hosts on Social MediaTom Hollingsworth: https://www.twitter.com/NetworkingNerdStephen Foskett: https://www.twitter.com/SFoskett Follow Gestalt ITWebsite: https://www.GestaltIT.com/Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/GestaltITLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/Gestalt-ITTags: #Rundown, @Intel, @IntelBusiness, @KentikInc, @Azure, @Microsoft, #Observability, @InfluxDB, @Riverbed, @Capital_Vector, @RedHat, @Oracle, @OracleCloud, #Linux, #OpenSource,
