Rocky Linux

Rocky Linux is a community enterprise operating system designed to be 100% bug-for-bug. In practice that means building software for you when nothing off the shelf fits.

Who is it for? Mostly companies with a specific process to automate. They are a small team, 11 to 50 people, which usually shapes who they work with. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Rocky Linux is based in Albany, California. Their site is rockylinux.org.

Things worth asking about: portfolio relevance, who owns the code, and how they handle changes. Get the renewal terms in writing before the first invoice.

If you have worked with Rocky Linux, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
