Red Hat and Microsoft announced that Red Hat Enterprise Linux will become an official Linux distribution for Windows Subsystem for Linux, enhancing user accessibility and integration.
Ron Pacheco mentioned, 'For developers who need to build Linux apps on a Windows system but then deploy on a RHEL environment, being able to use the same RHEL via WSL as they would for production can be a significant time- and resource-saver.'
With the new .tar-based WSL distro architecture, Red Hat aims to streamline how WSL distributions are packaged and installed, improving the overall user experience.
Being an official distro in WSL is expected to simplify the installation process for users and promotes easier discovery of RHEL in Windows environments.
