Linux distribution
Cygwin
Cygwin ( ) is a free and open-source Unix-like environment and command-line interface (CLI) for Microsoft Windows. The project also provides a software repository containing open-source packages. Cygwin allows source code for Unix-like operating systems to be compiled and run on Windows. Cygwin provides native integration of Windows-based applications.
RPM Package Manager
software package management system
Security-Enhanced Linux
Linux kernel security module
Hibernate
Java ORM framework
Kernel-based Virtual Machine
virtualization module in the Linux kernel
WildFly
WildFly, formerly known as JBoss AS, or simply JBoss, is an application server written by JBoss, now developed by Red Hat. WildFly is written in Java and implements the Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) specification. It runs on multiple platforms.
DNF
RPM package manager successor of yum and based on libsolv
Anaconda
software installer for several Linux distributions
OpenShift
OpenShift is a family of containerization software products developed by Red Hat. Its flagship product, OpenShift Container Platform, is a hybrid cloud platform as a service built around Linux containers orchestrated and managed by Kubernetes on a foundation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. OKD (Origin Community Distribution) serves as the community-driven upstream.
Ceylon

NetworkManager
NetworkManager is a daemon that sits on top of libudev and other Linux kernel interfaces (and a couple of other daemons) and provides a high-level interface for the configuration of the network interfaces to simplify the use of computer networks on Linux distributions.
Container Linux
Linux distribution
Ceph
free-software distributed data storage platform
libvirt
libvirt is an open-source API, daemon and management tool for managing platform virtualization. It can be used to manage KVM, Xen, VMware ESXi, QEMU and other virtualization technologies. These APIs are widely used in the orchestration layer of hypervisors in the development of a cloud-based solution.
Logical Volume Manager
logical volume management software for Linux
Podman
Podman (pod manager) is an open source Open Container Initiative (OCI)-compliant container management tool created by Red Hat used for handling containers, images, volumes, and pods on the Linux operating system, with support for macOS and Microsoft Windows via a virtual machine. Based on the libpod library, it offers APIs for the lifecycle management of containers, pods, images, and volumes. The API is identical to the Docker API. Podman Desktop provides an alternative to Docker Desktop.
FreeOTP
FreeOTP is a free and open-source authenticator by Red Hat. It implements multi-factor authentication using HOTP and TOTP. Tokens can be added by scanning a QR code or by manually entering the token configuration. It is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license, and supports Android and iOS.
Virtual Machine Manager

JBoss Seam
web application framework
FreeIPA
FreeIPA is a free and open source identity management system. FreeIPA is the upstream open-source project for Red Hat Identity Management.
oVirt
oVirt is a free, open-source virtualization management platform. It was founded by Red Hat as a community project on which Red Hat Virtualization was based. It allows centralized management of virtual machines, compute, storage and networking resources, from an easy-to-use web-based front-end with platform independent access. KVM on x86-64, PowerPC64 and s390x architecture are the only hypervisors supported, but there is an ongoing effort to support ARM architecture in a future releases.
RichFaces
RichFaces was an open source Ajax-enabled component library for JavaServer Faces, hosted by JBoss. It allows easy integration of Ajax capabilities into enterprise application development. It reached its end-of-life in June 2016.
Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments
computer protocol for virtual displays
Global File System
In computing, the Global File System 2 (GFS2) is a shared-disk file system for Linux computer clusters. GFS2 allows all members of a cluster to have direct concurrent access to the same shared block storage, in contrast to distributed file systems which distribute data throughout the cluster. GFS2 can also be used as a local file system on a single computer.
GNOME Disks
GNOME disk utility
Red Hat Enterprise Linux derivative
domain controller
a server computer that responds to authentication requests and enforces security policies for a network domain
device mapper
software framework provided by the Linux kernel for mapping physical block devices onto higher-level virtual block devices
CentOS Stream
Linux distribution by The CentOS Project
up2date
up2date, also known as the Red Hat Update Agent, is a tool used by older versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS and Fedora Core that downloads and installs new software and upgrades the operating system. It functions as a front-end to the RPM Package Manager and adds advanced features such as automatic dependency resolution. The file specifies where up2date will search for packages.
