[Starlingx-discuss] StarlingX support / long term / CentOS 8
so curious as the question has come up by the water cooler :) long term support for StarlingX v5 .. based on CentOS 7 / kernel 4.x moving to CentOS 8? or ? commercial support available from ? redhat ? wind river ? is there a long term support plan ??
Our plan for StarlingX was to move to CentOS 8, in fact a lot of the work has already been done in a feature branch. However RH's announcement impacts that work - we rely on upstream OS vendors for fixes and CVE issue resolution and RH will not be providing LTS for CentOS 8. We have several options - staying on CentOS 7 (but with the current 4.x kernel) is one of them. There is work in progress in the community to enable StarlingX on Open Embedded. There are other options under discussion but we as a community have not closed on our direction. AFAIK Red Hat does not provide commercial support for StarlingX. Wind River has a commercial product based on StarlingX. I suggest you contact them directly for any questions about it. brucej -----Original Message----- From: lists@optimcloud.com <lists@optimcloud.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2021 7:56 AM To: starlingx-discuss@lists.starlingx.io Subject: [Starlingx-discuss] StarlingX support / long term / CentOS 8 so curious as the question has come up by the water cooler :) long term support for StarlingX v5 .. based on CentOS 7 / kernel 4.x moving to CentOS 8? or ? commercial support available from ? redhat ? wind river ? is there a long term support plan ?? _______________________________________________ Starlingx-discuss mailing list Starlingx-discuss@lists.starlingx.io http://lists.starlingx.io/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/starlingx-discuss

what about the potential to move to say Fedora Server 33, or CoreOS ..... or even RedHat itself. curious if it would be possible to build a stx iso based off CoreOS
