After the acquisition of CoreOS by RedHat and the discontinuation of CoreOS support.

CoreOS Container Linux will reach its end of life on May 26, 2020 and will no longer receive updates.

We have decided together with our customer to provide an alternative to CoreOS before the 26.05.2020.

The current project name is Gardenlinux, although the name may not change until the public release.

Gardenlinux builds a full replacement for CoreOS based on Debian, without being biased by a target architecture.

Currently, the project supports the following platforms: BareMetal, AWS, GCP, Azure, VMWare, Openstack, and KVM and Docker.

Ports for AlibabaCloud are still under development.

In Produkton, Gardenlinux has already proven itself on BareMetal, KVM and AWS.
