Red Hat today released a beta of its Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6.9 platform, providing a preview of the next incremental update for the company' s older supported release. RHEL 6 first debuted in November of 2010 and was superseded in June 2014 by RHEL 7 as the leading-edge edition of Red Hat' s enterprise Linux platform.

" Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is a fully-supported release and customers will continue to receive the same award-winning support they have received for the platform since its introduction in November 2010," Steve Almy, senior product manager, Red Hat Enterprise Linux at Red Hat, told ServerWatch.

" At this point in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 lifecycle, most of the changes tend to be bug fixes and security patches that customers have come to rely on Red Hat to provide," Almy continued.
