Stop Patching: Managing Linux with bootc
Details
Most Linux systems are installed once and then gradually changed through package updates, configuration edits, and emergency fixes until no two machines are quite the same.
bootc offers a different approach: build the operating system as a container image, test it using familiar container workflows, and deploy updates consistently across your systems.
This talk introduces [bootc](https://www.cncf.io/projects/bootc/) - the open source technology behind Red Hat's [RHEL Image Mode](https://www.redhat.com/en/technologies/linux-platforms/enterprise-linux-10/image-mode).
It focuses on Day 2 operations, including reduced configuration drift, safer rollbacks, and more repeatable change management. It will include a live demo of updating an existing Linux server VM running a simple web application.
