The latest release of the RHEL 8 / CentOS 8. Red Hat has built its own tools,
buildah and podman, which aim to be compatible with
existing docker images and work without relying on a daemon, allowing the
creation of containers as normal users, without the need of special permissions
(with some limitations: e.g. at the moment of writing, it's still not
possible to map host ports to the container without privileges).
Some specific
tools, however, are still missing: an equivalent of
docker-compose, for example does not exists yet. In this tutorial
we will see how to install and run the original Docker CE on Rhel8 by using the
official Docker repository for CentOS7.

There may come a time when that package you want to install in RHEL 8 / CentOS 8 is simply not available as a RPM file. The alternative is to download the source and compile it yourself, or - alternatively - generate a RPM file from that source code later on.
But there is another way. Given the fact that Debian-based distributions have way more users than RPM-based ones, the number of available packages in their repositories is greater. Chances are you will be able to find a DEB file for that package you want. Here is how to install that DEB file in RedHat Linux with the help of a small utility called alien.

On a system with memory-intense workload with common peak loads, a large swap memory can be useful to store large memory contents not needed at the moment. While using swap instead of memory will certainly have great impact on performance, sometimes this is preferable over adding more memory to the machine, as disk space is much cheaper. Sometimes there is simply no more memory, maybe a physical machine that is out of free slots, and there isn't any larger memory modules on the market. At other times the slower performance on peak loads may be preferable over the application crashing with out of memory error.
In some cases swap memory needs to be increased, a live example could be expanding the memory in the machine, and so also expanding the swap space to match the double of the new memory size.
In this tutorial you will learn:- How to check swap space.
- How to identify swap volume.
- How to extend swap volume.
- How to add another swap volume.
