Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Released

An anonymous reader writes: Today, Red Hat unveiled Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, with new features designed to meet both modern datacenter and next-generation IT requirements for cloud, Linux Containers, and big data. The new version includes Linux containers (LXC), which let Linux users easily create and manage system or application containers, improved MS Active Directory / Identity Management (IdM) integration, XFS as the default file system, scaling to 500 TB (additional file system choices such as btrfs, ext{3,4} and others are available), a new and improved installation experience, managing Linux servers with OpenLMI, enhancements to both NFS and GFS2, optimized network management, bandwidth, the use of KVM Virtualization technology and more. See the complete list of features here (PDF). CentOS 7 shouldn't be lagging too far behind due to recent cooperation between Red Hat and CentOS project.

BULL SHIT.

Redhat routinely changes shit horrendously within release. They removed the crmsh configuration and replaced it with a completely different configuration tool in RHEL6, breaking a bunch of shit. They do this continuously: upgrade software, change some shit around, deprecate old tools for new tools, and tell you it's improved.
