Suitable for general purpose or Oracle workloads, it benefits from rigorous testing of more than 128,000 hours per day with real- world workloads and includes unique innovations such as Ksplice for zero- downtime kernel patching, DTrace for real-time diagnostics, the powerful Btrfs file system, and more.

How to use these images

The Oracle Linux images are intended for use in the FROM field of an application's Dockerfile. For example, to use Oracle Linux 6 as the base of an image, specify FROM oraclelinux:6.
