Oracle Linux - RHEL compatible platform designed for performance, security, and mission-critical workloads.

Oracle Linux 9

Launch Oracle Linux 9 virtual machines on Microsoft Azure for an enterprise-ready, RHEL-compatible platform tuned for production workloads. This image supports Azure Trusted Launch (vTPM, UEFI Secure Boot, Measured Boot) to help protect boot integrity and defend against advanced attacks. Ideal for databases, middleware, containers, and DevOps pipelines across global Azure regions.

Cloud Infrastructure Services certified images are always up-to-date, secure, and built to work right out of the box.

Oracle Linux 9 Features:

  • Oracle Linux 9 with predictable lifecycle and Enterprise Linux compatibility
  • UEK (Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel) for performance, scalability, and modern HW enablement
  • SELinux (enforcing), firewalld, OpenSSL/OpenSSH, and FIPS-friendly crypto policies
  • DNF package management with Oracle Linux repos and AppStream modules
  • Container tooling: Podman, Buildah, Skopeo; Kubernetes-friendly
  • Common stacks: Java, NGINX/Apache, Python, Node.js, PostgreSQL/MariaDB
  • Azure Trusted Launch support: vTPM, UEFI Secure Boot, Measured Boot (Gen2 VM)
  • Works with Azure Monitor, Backup, Defender for Cloud, and VM extensions

    • Benefits of running Oracle Linux on Azure:
  • Hardened boot chain with Trusted Launch (vTPM, Secure Boot, integrity reporting)
  • Enterprise stability and compatibility for mission-critical apps
  • Performance via UEK and tuned profiles for low latency/high throughput
  • Cost control with flexible VM sizes and pay-as-you-go compute
  • Automation-ready: Terraform, Bicep, Ansible, Azure CLI/PowerShell
