CentOS 8 End of Life – Are you Ready? My thoughts & Suggestions

CentOS 8 will reach its end of life very soon – after December 31st, there will be no more updates for the popular distribution. If you’re using CentOS 8 in your data center, it’s time to make a decision. In this video, I’ll go over my thoughts about the subject, as well as some possible options for how to proceed.

5 Million Views on my Youtube Channel!

Wow, I can’t believe I’m even typing this. I haven’t looked at my analytics in a while, but when I looked today I was pleasantly surprised to see that my Youtube channel has surpassed 5 million views! I want to take this time to thank all of my viewers and readers for being a part of this. Being able to create content for you that you seem to find helpful is an honor to me. There’s nothing greater to me than giving back to the community that has given so much to me. You guys are awesome!

From here, I have some fairly bold plans for the channel. I’m increasing the production quality of the videos, and creating new content every chance I get. I’m also looking very closely at analytics from now on. This means that for the specific types of videos you guys like the most, I will create more of them for you.

Cheers!
