Instead, Red Hat has released Red Hat Software Collections 1.0. This is a set of the newest, most stable versions of popular Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) open-source server programs.
“To deliver a cutting-edge application, Jim Totton, the VP and general manager of Red Hat’s Platform Business Unit, explained in a statement, “organizations must often choose between innovation and stability, a balancing act that frequently leads to chronic instability or feature stagnation. Red Hat Software Collections tackles this mutual exclusivity by allowing developers to use the latest, stable versions of Python, Ruby, MySQL, and other languages and databases used for modern web applications, all delivered with the full value and enterprise-grade qualities of a RHEL subscription.”
