OpenEuler 20.09 was officially released. With the joint efforts of community contributors, openEuler officially released the openEuler 20.09 version. According to the version plan, the openEuler 20.09 version is an innovative version rather than the LTS (Long Term Support) version.
This version of Linux Kernel uses version 4.19.140, which fixes the CVE vulnerability discovered since the release of version 20.03. During the development of this version, community contributors merged a total of 11,485 Pull Requests, and the number of SIG groups has also increased to 71, covering many fields from cloud computing, cloud-native to desktop.
The same time, community developers have brought many new features in the openEuler 20.09 version, especially the new open source project StratoVirt, which is a safe, lightweight, high-performance, low-loss, component The universal virtual machine runtime project for all scenarios, and the iSula project also released isula-build to realize the ability of image building.
