Our take
Development of the Community Enterprise Linux Operating System (CentOS) was dropped by IBM’s RedHat in just 2020, leaving a gaping hole in the market. When CIQ’s founders swept in to offer a replacement, Rocky Linux, and a complementary support and servicing company CIQ, the demand reportedly skyrocketed - and, according to CIQ, it hasn’t subsided since.
That’s because the old CentOS was one of the principal OSs used by enterprise, cloud, VMs, and containers - Google, for example, was among one of its many enterprise users. Now Google has picked up Rocky Linux, and CIQ has consequently scooped up that major partnership too - and some healthy funding. It’s a fitting reward for a highly savvy play from the CIQ founders, picking up a tried-and-tested product that’s already achieved strong market penetration.
Besides Rocky Linux, CIQ has also developed cluster provisioning solution Warewulf, high performance computing (HPC) app containers tool Apptainer, and hybrid performance computing platform-as-a-Service Fuzzball. So it’s safe to say that CIQ has managed to skilfully manoeuvre its way into a pivotal position in the development of cutting edge high performance computing architecture. Now it will need to ensure it can capitalize on its lead.
