Today marks 22 years since I started Phoronix.com to focus on Linux hardware reviews. It's been quite a journey from the early state of Linux hardware support.....

Earlier this week I ran benchmarks of different CachyOS Linux kernel flavors that proved interesting from the performance overhead of their hardened kernel build to various other interesting performancr takeaways. One kernel flavor I hadn't tested though was their build with the BORE scheduler. Given the interest and feedback from Phoronix readers, here is an article focused on looking at the performance of the BORE scheduler for the Linux kernel on CachyOS.

It's no secret that IT operations is a complex area. Teams face demanding workloads, where many tasks have to be completed quickly. Objectives typically focus on smooth and resilient operations, and enabling fast innovation to support organizational needs. In their distinct role, security teams must manage risk and compliance, respond quickly to incidents, protect data, and govern access. All these priorities must be simultaneously met, and this leaves the ITOps and SecOps teams searching for the best ways to collaborate. In this article, This article provides an overview of how Red Hat Ansibl

At the OpenShift Commons Gathering in Amsterdam on March 23—a Day Zero event for KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2026—attendees got a deep look into the engine room of 1 of Turkey's largest private banks. Emirhan Bilge Bulut, an Expert System Engineer at Garanti BBVA, joined Gokhan Goksu, a Senior Solution Architect at Red Hat, to discuss the unglamorous but essential infrastructure management required to support 30 million customers and 1.2 billion daily transactions.

Amazon Linux 2 reaches end of life (EOL) on June 30, 2026. If your migration isn't already underway, the window to move deliberately rather than reactively is narrowing. Migrating business-critical workloads to a supported operating system (OS) takes real time. Legacy runtimes, compliance requirements, and limited change windows all affect how quickly you can move.When evaluating your next steps, don't just ask “What do we migrate to?” Consider what kind of long-term Linux strategy you want to build. How you answer that question will shape not just this migration, but how smoothly your inf

We’re moving beyond simple prompts. The next frontier is agentic AI: autonomous systems that don’t just talk, but act across your enterprise. But as we move into this era, I’m hearing a consistent concern from our customers: How do we adopt these agents without losing control of our infrastructure or our data?In the Forrester report, “Understand your agentic AI platform options,” there is a vital takeaway: agentic AI is a portfolio problem. Many organizations are falling into the trap of trying to centralize their AI under a single, proprietary vendor. At Red Hat, we believe that pat

InfoWorld - IBM and Red Hat want to become the ‘security clearinghouse’ for open source applications in the enterpriseInfoWorld looks at IBM and Red Hat's Project Lightwell, a $5 billion initiative backed by 20,000 engineers to act as an AI-powered security clearinghouse for enterprise open source software. The program aims to accelerate the discovery and remediation of vulnerabilities by safely backporting validated fixes directly into active production environments without causing disruptive upgrades.

With this week's launch day review of the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE, Ubuntu 26.04 with its Linux 7.0 and Mesa 26.0 default driver stack was used for testing. That choice was made since the Ubuntu 26.04 release is still fresh, the RDNA4-based RX 9070 GRE was working without issue there, and from other RDNA4 testing knowing there isn't much uplift from the in-development Linux 7.1 kernel or the current stable Mesa 26.1 OpenGL RadeonSI / Vulkan RADV drivers. But for those interested, here are those tests...

The upcoming Linux 7.2 mainline kernel is expected to be able to boot on Apple M3 devices including the M3-powered iMac and MacBook products. But before getting too excited it's still a long ways to go before it will actually be useful for any Apple M3 daily usage under Linux with the overall support at this stage still being very limited for these 2~3 year old Apple Macs...
