Rocky Linux is one of several variants (also referred to as of the Linux operating system. It is based on the source code of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux distribution (RHEL), developed by a U.S. company named Red Hat, Inc. Based in Raleigh, North Carolina, the company was founded in the mid-1990s through the merger of two companies owned at the time by Marc Ewing and Bob Young. The origins of Linux, however, go back even further.
Red Hat also sponsors the Fedora Project, the goal of which is to provide access to a free Linux operating system (in both source and binary distributions) in the form of Fedora Linux. Fedora Linux also serves as a proving ground for many of the new features that are eventually adopted into the Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system family and the CentOS derivative.
Rocky Linux was created in 2021 by Greg Kurtzer, a co-founder of the CentOS project. After taking control of the CentOS project, Red Hat changed the philosophy of CentOS Linux from being 100% compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux to serving as a platform to test new features before including them in the next RHEL release. The result is an operating system called CentOS Stream that is no longer guaranteed to be as stable and reliable as RHEL. In response to this change, Kurtzer created Rocky Linux based on the original principles of CentOS Linux, namely, to provide an operating system that is 100% compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
