For containers and AWS, Amazon Linux seems like a logical choice nowadays.
On managed Kubernetes/container orchestration on any cloud, you should use what they support/recommend for the worker nodes, then standardise at the container level.
I just don’t see the need for Red Hat in the cloud services context, and their recent moves just make the whole company irrelevant there. Just another company to avoid if you can, like Oracle.
Red Hat’s benefits were primarily certifications and enterprise support. I guess the banks and other highly regulated industries will stick with it, but they’ve just cut the cord to the wider community.
In a few years, people won’t even list RHEL on their CVs.
