FORT MYERS, FL, UNITED STATES, November 18, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The AlmaLinux OS Foundation, the nonprofit that stewards the free and community-governed open source enterprise Linux distribution, today announced the general availability of AlmaLinux 9.5.

“Our decision to continue to build and release beta versions for AlmaLinux has made this a super smooth production release for us,” said Andrew Lukoshko, lead architect at AlmaLinux. “This continues our commitment to meeting the needs of our user community - no drama in their operating system.”
This release provides improved performance, development tooling, and security. Additionally, updated compilers provide the latest features and optimizations, improving performance and code generation. The release also includes:
