Subject: CERN Transitioning Industrial Computers To Debian After Being A Longtime RHEL Institution


Good day from Singapore,


Here is an article which I would like to share.


Article: CERN Transitioning Industrial Computers To Debian After Being A Longtime RHEL Institution

Link: https://www.phoronix.com/news/CERN-Goes-Debian-Leaving-RHEL

Date of article: 2 Sep 2026


"CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, besides being well known for its Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is known among longtime Linux users as a RHEL/CentOS shop. 

CERN formally even co-maintained the Scientific Linux RHEL derivative with other educational/research institutions in the past. 

So to much surprise now, CERN is transitioning to Debian Linux for industrial accelerator-control computers."


Thank you.


Regards,
