RHEL, Fedora and CentOS: Solving The Penrose Triangle
summary
The relationship among Fedora, RHEL and CentOS is not a clean Fedora→RHEL→CentOS pipeline: Fedora holds about 21,750 source components, RHEL pulls roughly 13% of Fedora packages into RHEL7, RHEL kernels come from kernel.org, and CentOS is a painstaking RHEL rebuild that is “good enough” but approximate. Red Hat is working on unifying kernel communities, merging infra, adding CentOS CI to Fedora, and shipping modularity (parallel availability) so OS lifecycles slow while applications move faster.
