When Dataiku free VM will be based on Rocky Linux ?
Hello there,
Currently, the Dataiku Free VM is based on CentOS 7.9 that will officially be end-of-life in june 2024.
CentOS 7.9 currently only provide Python v3.6 as the official Python distro package, meaning that we have to install recent Python versions by hand (./configure and then "make altinstall") which is painful and useless per se.
Could be now provide the Dataiku Free VM based on a "more-maintained" Linux distro, for instance Rocky Linux 9, in order for us to have newer versions of Python on it https://pkgs.org/download/python3 ?
Thank you !

We will take note of this request.
You can always install DSS yourself directly on a Linux VM you create with Alma8 or any supported Linux distribution: https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/installation/custom/requirements.html#linux-distributions
